Continuing with the unit proposals...

Veteran Assault Marines
Exceptional warriors amongst the Space Marines are inducted into the
prestigious First Company, where they receive additional training in
all areas of warcraft. Many learn how to use the dreaded Terminator
suits, while others excel at other forms of fighting. All are
equipped to the highest standard, and they are most often seen at the
forefront of the fighting. Veteran Assault Marines are considered
Elite units.

Librarian
In battle, a Librarian uses his psychic prowess to hurl righteous
fire at the enemy, or to embolden the spirits of nearby friendly
forces. They are also one of the most valuable troops to have when
combating forces of Chaos, as they have certain abilities that are
particularly effective against dæmons, which are intrinsically
vulnerable to psychic attacks. Librarians are powerful Psykers, and
may use one of the following powers once per turn:
1) Destroy Dæmon (Ethereal) - same of SM Librarian.
2) Purge Psyker (Ethereal) - same of SM Librarian.
3) Quickening (Ethereal) - This power is used at the start of the
Close Combat phase: a friendly stand within a 50cm and LoS (or the
Librarian himself) has his CAF doubled (up to a maximum of +10) until
end of turn.
Models: Librarian and Tactical Marine models from the GW Space Marine
sprue.

*N.B. 'Ethereal' means 'Non-physical'

Dreadnought `Furioso'
