See Space Marines (5e Creature) Terminators are the elite warriors of space marine chapters. These veterans of countless battles stride into battle equipped with iconic terminator armour, turning an already formidable space marine into a nigh-untouchable juggernaut. Honoured Veterans. Space marines who distinguish themselves with decades of exemplary service or multiple acts of heroism are promoted to their chapter’s First Company, a position of considerable prestige and honour. Such veterans may then undergo training to fight in specialized tactical dreadnought armour, otherwise known as terminator armour. Those who complete their training are awarded terminator honours and permitted to bear the armour in battle. Slow but Steady. Terminator armour is cumbersome and bulky, adding several feet to the space marine’s already considerable height and girth. The sheer size and weight of it hinders a space marine’s mobility, making them slower even than devastator marines. In exchange, the armour makes a terminator even more difficult to harm, and it compensates for their reduced speed with a built-in teleportation device. Mighty Arms. The typical terminator is armed with a power fist, an oversized gauntlet as large as an ordinary man’s torso. It is as powerful as it is unsubtle, able to flatten men with one blow and punch holes in stone walls. They also carry a double-barreled variant of the regular bolter known as a storm bolter, which sacrifices accuracy for rate of fire. Variant Equipment: Assault Terminator The terminator may replace its power fist and storm bolter with a thunder hammer and storm shield, increasing its AC to 22. The terminator can wield the thunder hammer one-handed with no penalties. This does not affect the space marine’s challenge rating. Charge. If the space marine moves at least 10 feet toward a target and then hits it with a thunder hammer attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 13 (2d12) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be pushed up to 10 feet away and knocked prone. Multiattack. The space marine makes two thunder hammer attacks. Thunder Hammer. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 18 (2d12 + 5) bludgeoning damage. |
