So I was looking at the Archons retinue and saw the Lhamean will give the archon and auto 2+ to wound. Soooo with an agoniser and Lhamean=2+ to wound?

No. Llhameans make any Poisoned weapons wound on 2+, which only affects the Venom Blade, Splinter Pistol or Stinger Pistol.

Of which, indeed, the Venom Blade and Stinger Pistol already wound on a 2+. So the Lhamaean's ability only affects the Splinter Pistol.

To specify - the agoniser is NOT a poison weapon. It merely always wounds on a 4+.

You need that actual label of "poison weapon" for it to qualify.

This may change in 6th... maybe?

Also of consequence given the Agonizer isn't actually a poison weapon is you don't get a re-roll to wound for having a Strength value equal to or greater than the target's Toughness.
