pros;
- upto 1 power toy + 1 power fist or pair of lightning claws.
- terminator honours for everyone
- storm shield or combat shield options
- veteran skills - typically furious assault being popular for that S5/I5 charge! though infiltrate is equally handy
- excellent unit to stick your castellan/marshal into

cons;
- with all the options, they're dead pricey!
- still need a transport to get them to the fight quickly
- still suffer from 'rightous zeal'
- no real anti-tank options beyond a meltagun which means 1 less power toy in a predominantly 'assault' unit.
- no veteran sergeant option

hope this helps!
cheers!
