Terminators are not amazing in 40K, they have staying power and that's it,
close assault termies on the other hand, are amazing, but have no ranged

When you dream there are no rules, people can fly, anything can happen.
Sometimes, there's a moment as you're waking, that you become aware of
the real world around you, but you're still dreaming.
You may think you can fly, but you better not try it...
