      I picked up this set, traded the Necrons for another Marine half, and assigned the Eradicators to my Imperial Fists and the Outriders to my Raptors. After putting together my new Fists army list I realized I hadn't used most of the new models. Turns out I have enough to easily build a 1000 point/50 power melee army and between their abilities and as fellow sons of Dorn, Templars made the most sense. This conversion will be the icing on the cake.
