I know that bolters can get psy bolt and some flamers get psy flame so is there a kind of "psy las"?

I don't see why they would make it. Too expensive to give to the guardsmen.

True, but what about Lascannons on land raiders? (thanks for such a quick answer)

I doubt it.

Flamer fuel can be blessed. Bolts can be blessed, lasers, somewhat intangible.

lasers refracted through purified/anointed glass?

I wouldn't know then again its all space magic.

Or maybe they just bless the whole thing?

Or just stick with the Hotshot and Hellgun ammunition. Who needs psychic ammunition when you have ceramite piercing las rounds? Or rapid fire anti infantry rifles?

That's true, thanks for the great replys.

You think your average lasgun-toting imperial guardsman would be worthy of flinging the The Emperor's Holy Poo?

And how do you convert "residue" to laser beams.......silly stuff.

Channel enough energy through it. It might not be a laser, but it will definitely be plasma.

If that doesn't work?

Channel more energy through it until it does work.

The practical effects of "enough power" are explored in an awesome way here

I don't see the problem. This is the Imperium we're talking about, after all.

MORE POWER!!!!!!

Psybolts are made by including a byproduct of the Golden Throne(some sort of psychic goo) and a normal bolt shell that is painstakingly hand crafted and blessed.

Psyflame ammo does the same thing with Promethium. Also mixing in sacred oils and other stuff.


Las weaponry is energy based. You can't get psychic goo into an energy capaciter.

I agree with the more power idea and thanks grey Templar I wasn't aware about how it was made

Well...you can but it is NOT advisable. Just like peeing into you computer is a bad idea.

I always think that the real damage from psy ammo is the gross out factor. Who wants emperor poo on them? and can you image the smell that psyflamer i.e. burnt incense would be like?

Eeeeeew never thought of it like that, feel the power of my master crafted poo flinger.

I know right? But once it's pointed out it suddenly makes so much sense. I mean he eats a thousands psykers a day, something has to come out. He sits on a golden throne, what else did we think came out of it? His personal guardians are called (basically) custodians.

I did, however, never think of the smell psyflamer would likely create. It must smell like million flaming bags of poop. At least.

So the custodians have giant poop scoopers and it's actually the worst job in the imperium... and using psy flame ammo.

Custodes got gold armor and are well paid

Bribe them with shiny stuff.

Probably why they where gold, which is extremely corrosion resistant, just hose the custodians down after their "Holy" duties.

Then again, GW artwork shows the Emperor's bodyguards as wearing black. Oh, and topless. Probably easier to clean this way.

Maybe they are just servitors.

The Adeptus Custodes?

Definitely not servitors. These are the *other* group of people that are free from the Inquisition's suspicions and authority. The first group, of course, being the God-Emperor, Himself.

Ah, I see.
