answers:
1) any space marine character, (commander or chaplain or librarian) can buy terminator armour at the indicated pts cost.
2) anyone can use any item unless the item has specific limits. (such as the chainfist being listed as "
terminators only".)
models in terminator armour however may only select weapons & wargear with the 't' symbol next to them!
3) regular space marine termies have much greater tactical flexability and options...
grey knights get incinerator/psycannon upgrade + they have either S6 power weapons or thunder hammer & storm shields...
both have their uses, though i've found grey knights, while extreamly characterfull, to be more of a luxury than an actual great unit!
4) no. the only exception is if your chapter has taken the 'sicons of mars' trait which allows single wound models to buy terminator armour from the armoury... (note that the 2nd printing now reads xxpts/ - )
5) as long as the land raider has not been bought as a dedicated transport for another unit!
keep in mind you can't move the turn you deep strike, so the tactical use of this idea is a bit doubtfull, unless the land raider is very close by!
cheers!
