Hey guys in the pyromancy disapline does spontaneous combustion seem a little OP to you? you can basically auto kill 1 wound models, and if you have mastery level 4 (lets say ahrim) then you could basically take out ~3 models per turn, even if they were terminators or something.

The following weapons can kill single wound models;

Plasma Gun
Melta Gun
Krak Missile
Power Sword
Plasma Pistol
Multi-Melta
Rail Gun

And combustion requires you to first.....

Roll on a random chart, then take a leadership test, then use the power. The chance of you getting it three times is highly unlikely.

Well you don't get armor/cover saves so you can take invul saves as normal. It does seem good, but nothing truly game breaking.

Not many things can shoot witchfires more than 1/turn

Than theres also the point he can only use each witchfire once. He may not cast the same 3 times, much less 2

oh, i thought that the powers were generated at the begining of the game and you could use them as much as you wanted. ok then, i guess it isnt OP. still very useful against high wound models.
