One thing that no one has pointed out (at least explicitly) is that IoCG is a very cheap teleport homer.
My first 40K army was CSM and I had quite a bit of success using vanilla CSM with a terminator Lord and a 5 terminator retinue. I would hold them in reserve then deep strike them in alongside a CSM squad that was about to go into CC. The termies would soften up the oppo with fire on the turn they arrived. The CSM would lock them into a combat and next turn the termies would wade in and create havoc.
The morale re-roll helped with this tactic, but it wasn't the sole reason for taking the Icon.
