====Terminators====
[[Teleport homer]]s are incorporated into the behemoth [[Terminator armour]], allowing [[Terminator squad]]s to teleport directly into the midst of their enemies. Standard [[Power Armour]]-ed Space Marines normally can not safely teleport due to [[Warp]] exposure, but the heavily protected Terminator frames offer protection.{{Fn|14}} Teleportation is used both by Imperial [[Space Marines]] and their [[Chaos Space Marine|Chaos]] counterparts. The ship-based teleporter devices used by the Terminators are maintained by [[Astropath]]s. Using their psychically gifted minds, they allow the Terminators a brief moment of safe passage by shifting certain aspects of the [[warp]]. Some, mainly the members of the [[Ordo Malleus]], have shown scorn for the idea of using the Warp to allow the troops of the Imperium the ability to teleport. However, none can criticize the vast number of battles the Imperium has won due to this ability.{{Cite ThisFn|1}}
A notable Imperial commander who advocates Terminator teleportation attacks is [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Darnath Lysander]] of the [[Imperial Fists]] [[Chapter]], who is known to lead his men at the forefront of the attacks performed by the Imperial Fists from the ''[[Phalanx]]'', the Imperial Fists' massive space-borne [[Fortress-monastery]].{{Fn|1}}
