hmm i wouldn't mind a chainsword in oblivion, and would be quite awesome if the saw teeth actually moved. idea about the massive pauldrons, most of the armor ive seen have the pauldrons welded to the shoulder and a bit of the upper arm, but what if you welded it ONLY to the upper arm, then it wouldnt get weird deformations, and may only get sleight problems of the top of the pauldron going through the armor, since thats what the space marine armor is like anyway, and evern add enchantments to it to be like real marine armour, eg fortify strength (bionic implants) fortify endurance and so on. i can help with some textures but cant really model to well. EDIT: also got some pictures i took in soul storm for reference http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/94/marinehw2.jpg if you need more just ask
