You call terminators (and teleported terminators), assault, grey knoghts,

mmmh well:
Tarantulas, scorpions, off table barrage, Thunderhawk Gunship, Marauder
Fighter-Bomber.

Warlord Titans mounted with vortex, plasma and so on (reaver Titans, scout
Titans)

as Eldar btw, the only non special are scout (like for SM)

aspect warriors compared with termies?? ehi :o) let's be serius.
You only can compare normal troops with aspect, things like: assaults, grey
knoghts, battle compnay, devastator company, Bloodclaws, Grey Hunters,
Great Company, that you can take also as *Company* cards, the only thing
compared with termies are Exarchs, but they are a special, costs 400 points
(without transports or teleport)
Consider after this that SM can take IG as allies, this means artillery and
so on.
They're not outrageously better than Eldar but a little all around better
units and more flexible for sure.

P.S. someone posted something about "the cult" a while ago, I'm collecting
stuff to build an Army, there is something for rules yet?
Greetings.
