The Ancient in Terminator Armour is a veteran banner-bearer for Space Marines armies — an Astartes who has survived enough campaigns to be entrusted with the Chapter's sacred standards and who fights in Tactical Dreadnought Armour, making him one of the most resilient non-character support models in a Space Marines force. His role on the battlefield is straightforward: the Chapter Astartes Banner he carries provides a re-roll aura that improves the hit or wound rolls of nearby Space Marine units, keeping the force effective even as casualties mount. This multipart plastic kit builds one Ancient in Terminator Armour carrying an Astartes Banner, armed with a storm bolter.
Use in Terminator-heavy Space Marines forces where the Ancient can benefit multiple Terminator squads with the banner aura without needing to manoeuvre independently, in Ultramarines or successor Chapter lists where veteran support characters reinforce the already-reliable core infantry, and as a conversion base for Chapter-specific Ancient models where the Terminator armour provides a high-quality base and the banner can be replaced with a custom heraldic standard. The model works at the centre of a heavily armoured assault force, advancing with the Terminators rather than hanging back, and the storm bolter allows him to contribute firepower while maintaining the aura effect.
