Hey all, short and sweet.

Can you have multiple cleansing flames? I had 20 gargoyles assault my 2 purifier squads, one which had Castellan Crowe in it... i passed all 3 psychic tests for cleansing and managed to inflict more than enough wounds. (60 4+ rolls on 20 guys.. i made like 40 of them somehow.. and he failed all the armor). Somehow this felt a bit OP.. or unfair. He charged me, and i killed him with cleansing flame before the combat even began!

Am I overlooking something or is this power just that badass??

I had thought of bringing a few Purifier squads and breaking them up with combat Tactics... what then? If i broke 4 10 man squads into 8 squads and lets say for some silly reason 8 squads all ran into the same combat I would have 8 cleansing flames?

Does this have anything to do with if the Knight of the Flame is alive or not? It read how the Justicar ,Knight of the Flame..etc.. always takes the first perils and you always use his leadership. I dont know why this is as he's the same leadership as the entire squad!

It was actually a very crazy game... i was passing 3d6 leadership on shadows of the warp... and his deathleaper made my Grandmaster Ld7... and i was rolling 3d6 and passing my force weapon... I got to see a Grandmaster kill a Swarmlord, Hive Tyrant, Tyrannofex, 3 tyrant guard Crazy stuff!!!

Indeed, I actually lost 50% of two purifier squads before i ever got into combat. If he had kept shooting me I'd of probably widdled down enough to not be a threat.

I had no idea Castellan Crowe was not an IC.... my bad. I just assumed being an HQ he was one, so he just sits all out there by his lonesome? I don't really get it.. I did it wrong then cause I had him in a squad of 10 purifiers coming out of a Stormraven.

So I could still technically run him beside another squad, just not within 1inch? or is that just for enemy models? I guess he gets to hold the backline!

Either way those gargoyles are dead 6 ways to sunday.. ^^;
