Terminator armour is a treasure beyond price, a relic of a lost age of craftsmanship that even the Imperium can no longer replicate in quantity. Among the Chaos Space Marines these suits are hoarded jealously, passed to the most favoured and murderous champions of a warband, and worn with lethal pride.
Chaos Terminators deploy in the most brutal fashion imaginable, teleporting directly into the enemy's midst to unleash devastating close-range firepower before crushing survivors with power fists, chainaxes and lightning claws. Their armour renders them almost impervious to small-arms fire, allowing them to walk unflinching through fusillades that would cut down ordinary warriors.
Ten thousand years of warp exposure have left their mark. Many suits are fused with the flesh of their wearers or corrupted by daemonic influence, sprouting spikes, horns and blasphemous iconography. Slow, implacable and terrifyingly durable, Chaos Terminators are the armoured fist of a Chaos assault, deployed to shatter the strongest point of an enemy line and grind it into ruin.
