Definitely use them as Shadowswords, IMHO, as the data sheet for IG
Super Heavies mentions volcano cannon as well as Plasma blastguns.
And besides, the Stormblades are really Shadowsword variants- they are
basically the same chassis.

I use the Epic transfers on Imperial vehicles (eg company badges) as
well as on Titans and banners.

From these I would only get the stormblades... Although my
superheavies don't usually kill much, they have a very high "fear"
value, and they usually soak up a hellavalot of enemy firepower.
Also, if you can get your hands on any of the "old" epic infantry
boxes (ie the 5 sprue ones, not the really old ones), buy them.
Infantry has gone up in price 3 fold; I will never buy the new epic
infantry boxed sets out of principle. Also, the older sets may well
become collectors items 8-).
