Well what do you have allready? What kind of army is your playstyle? It's a little hard to help when you don't give us very much information.

It depends on how large games you play, also. A treminator squad can be a good choice in a 2,000 point game, but a worthless choice in a 1,000 point game.

well it matters on how big an army list u use as well, A dreadnaught is (atleast how i use mine) a cheaper version of a termy squad. If I want a a dreadnaught for a higher pnt game I get a venerable one and trick it out with Furious charge. Anyway it realy depends on what u wanna do, all have great strengths and weakness'.

As far as I know the only bonus for Tyrannic Veterans is against Tyrannids, so scratch that since you said you won't be playing them.. It all depends on how you play and what kind of army you want to have.
