Please tell me these don't count as power weapons? (As force weapons = power weapons, as per the BGB?)

Please...

Force weapons are on Page 50 of the rulebook.

Force weapons ignore armor saves.

Razerous speaks the truth; the codex states :

- All nemesis weapons are force weapons, as detailed in WH40K rulebook (so yes they are power weapons)
- All nemesis weapons have demonbane. Even if not activated.
- They also have abilities linked to their specific type e.g nemesis daemon hammer is a thunder hammer plus the above abilities.

Sorry.

They lost true grit though, so get half as many attacks per model, lost WS, and their weapons no longer boost their strength but they have a psychic power that does. They got cheaper though.

And the psychic power (Hammerhand) can be spammed by applying it with a character and then the unit for 2+ S.
It doesn't say it isn't cumulative in the dex.

I'm sure this will be dealt with in the FAQ.

What isn't clear about this? the book says they are force weapons.


each GK, upon a successful squad based psychic test, can cause 1 wound he caused to inflict instant death.


this does mean Gk players will have to roll each Gks attacks seperatly if activating the Force Weapons.

Force Weapons are also power weapons.

I'm pretty sure that if you have a libby or such attached to the unit you can spam Hammerhand. S6 attacks FTW!

The rule is after the first unsaved wound test to see if you cause ID. Afterwards all other wound that assault phase by that unit gets ID.

i guess i have been interpreting it wrong.
