The nanoweave + clamshell does represent flak better. For the carapace I would go the TL Combat Hardsuit (DR 75/45) since that's closer to midway between what armors you've chosen for 5+ and 3+.

I agree that the Hardsuit is probably a better midway point, but I figured that since it is a "sealed" armor, it didn't fit the feel very well.

See, this is where not having played 40k for a decade hindered my conversion. ;)
I totally forgot about the hammer and shield, and the lightning claw combinations. But I seem to think that all Terminator armor has a built in force field, regardless if they have the additional storm shield. Is that not the case?
