Do the -1T effects stack? For example: I have a 6-man RW BK squad, and they fire two rad grenades (because I'll have two grenade launchers) at a Trygon, would that Trygon now be T4, and thus I can ID it with a melta?

Edit: Ah, it is right in the rules. A unit hit by one or more rad shells suffers -1 to T. So no, hitting them with multiples won't stack the penalty. Firing multiples just helps to ensure that at least one of them hits.

If only CSM could ally with DA....Typhus's or any Nurgle Soceror's contagion (48" range ftw) -1, Enfeeble's -1, and Rad grenades' -1. S3 T1 Marines/Terminators anyone? How broken would a 35 man cultist squad ID terminators?

GK Rad grenades stack, DA ones don't. Of course the GK ones are only on certain characters.

soo technically, taking DA allies with rad grenade launchers plus a double Gk rad grenade squad could have you swinging on T1 marines? Assuming that's true, did the army with I6 ap3 weapons with ID or S5 really need this kinda combo? And here I thought Gks pally spam allied with Cron fliers was stupid broken....guess I was wrong.

There is going to be almost no difference between T1 and T2 marines, unless you want you cause ID with lasguns. Otherwise, you will be wounding on 2+ and causing ID with every other weapon you'll be using.

You can get 5 rad grenades in a GK squad Although, as has been pointed out, it doesn't work that way

DA dont have direct access to biomancy which is a shame, because having minus 2 to toughness would be brillant against Nids, toughness 4 hive tyrants and tervigons getting ID with krak missiles would be awesome!
