Alright, I have a couple of queries about Daemonhunters. Not, fortunately, the instadeath Grand Master thing. I think I'd burn on a pyre if I brought that one back.

1 - Grey Knight Justicars, because they are in power armour, cannot take any different weapons and can only take stuff from the Wargear section. However...one of the things in the Wargear section is Artificer Armour. Would a Justicar, upgraded to wearing Artificer Armour be allowed to take different weapons since he's not longer in Power Armour and still has access to the armoury? And if so, would a Psycannon or Incenartor remove his Nemesis Force Weapon?

2 - Can an Inquistor with a null rod use a Psychic Hood to block powers? There's nothing in the rules to suggest a Hood is likely to be stopped by a Null Rod but I figured I'd check.

3 - Sacred Incense works against any Chaos units, by the wording. Not Daemons. Does this means it affects any units in the Chaos Marines and Chaos Daemons codexes?

2. Yes. It only prevents psychic POWERS from working (his or any others that target or have an effect on his unit). A hood is not a power, it is wargear. Using the hood is having the =I= exercising his 'will' to block the enemy power.

2 been answer and 3 I'm not touching (old codex syndrome)

For all intents and purposes he is still wearing the power armour. This is because nothing tells you to remove it ... so in effect he has both on at the same time.

I always assumed that it was removed in the same way as the Storm Bolter the Grey Knight Hero take is replaced by a Psycannon.

RAP for the older codex was you lost something or trade it back for the points. There is however no rule allowing a model to give things back.

So a Grey Knight Hero can't take a weapon other than a Storm Bolter, as the armoury says that he can only have two weapons and he can't give the Storm Bolter back?

Legally ... NO

But as i said most people make up they can ... may have been a rule for it in 3rd-4th edition of the BGB but there's not any more

No, he has both Power Armour AND Artificer Armour.

Yes.

RaW it does nothing because it never defines what a "Chaos" model is. Clear it up pre game.

Perhaps better to say that Artificer is a type of Power Armour.

"Sacred Incense works against any Chaos units, by the wording. Not Daemons. Does this means it affects any units in the Chaos Marines and Chaos Daemons codexes?"

Units belonging to Chaos forces - units found in Codex Chaos Space Marines and Codex Daemons.

1. He can take Artificer armor for the points, and he's got a 2+ save but cannot exchange the weapons around, he gets a Storm Bolter and a Nemesis Force Weapon.

2. You can take a Psychic hood and the Null rod, but remember the Null rod automatically makes it so that he and his unit are immune to psychic powers. And Grey Knights have a natural immunity to powers that are directed at them.. it's the Aegis and it works exactly the same as the hood.

3. It affects Chaos units, meaning any unit of Chaos, either Chaos Space Marines or Chaos Daemons.

Artificer Armor can be seen as a type of power armor. Simply put it's an upgrade for the power armor that he is wearing currently.

A null rod does not prevent a psychic hood from working since it is not a psychic power.

Anything that is Chaos. Chaos Demons, Chaos space Marines, a random unit from the Chaos Space Marines Codex ... all are termed Chaos. If Chaos is in the name it's Chaos. If it follows a Chaos God - it's Chaos. Clear it up before game jsut to be sure however.

I would restate what they all said but I have nothing to add or change. All in all yeah these guys have covered it.
