I've two questions regarding terrify.

1) Unit A is falling back. Unit B uses terrify on it. What does happen?

2) Suppose different psichic powers do stack. Please I don't want to argue about that here, let's just assume this for true because this is how it's generally accepted in my group. Terrify is casted upon unit A which fails its test and falls back. Then terrify is cast again (from another psyker obviously). What happens?

The problem is that it seems strange to me to see a unit fall back twice in the same turn. However i didn't find anything stating that this is impossible nor i found anything saying that falling back units auto pass/fail morale checks. Can you give me some insight? Page and paragraph are enough. Thanks Dakka!

1) it falls back again, any unit that is falling back automatically fails morale checks. Its possible to tank shock a unit off the board for example with multiple tanks.

2) Powers stack unless the power says otherwise, you'll get the "maledictions don't stack" crowd but meh.

You can fall back an infinite number of times in a turn, the trick is that you need multiple sources to force a morale check.

Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

A unit that is Falling Back will auto-fail morale tests until it regroups - page 30, last paragraph. Multiple Terrifies are very powerful, and you can even throw in a Tank Shock for more falling back.

1) & 2) have the same answer - you take another morale check and fall back. Already falling back units automatically fail this check

If you dont, you havent actually resolved the power. You have been able to cause people to flee the board in this turn since at least 3rd (definitely 4th, hazy before that) with multiple tank shocks.

Another nail in the "doesnt stack" coffin, as well.

Thank you all for the quick replies! I completely missed page 30.
