So in a henchman warband I can buy a ml1 psyker. If I put multiple psykers do I get multiple warp charges or just one. If it is multiple do they each get to roll for a different psychic power.

**BlackTalos**

The Inquisition Codex is quite clear as to what happens if you take more than 1 Psyker in a Warband.
Especially if you read what Special rule the "Psyker" has, right before it says (Mastery Level 1)

**Dbourg**

So they are BOP so the only reason to take multiples are for perils wounds

Not the only reason, read the rules for Psychic Barrage - Warp Charge 1 in the Psychic powers above.

Edit: Actually, in this case, all models suffer the effects of Perils, so the opposite is true for perils wounds

There is no psychic barrage they have access to rule book powers.

My Digital Version of Codex:Inquisition does not say that?

Do i need to update it, have you got a picture for that?

**Dbourg**

I would update the codex. Look at the attached picture. I am using the psykers for prescience

I shall do just that! Thank you!

And indeed, it falls back down to simply having a Wound Pool for Perils.

Guess they're not coming onto the table again soon....

Don't bench them just yet. They are still the cheapest warp charge generators in the whole game. You just have to pay a basic acolyte 'tax' of ~1/3 of a Space Marine plus whatever your awesome Inquisitor is doing.

Do you get a charge for just the unit, or for each individual psyker?

**Jimsolo**

They lost their 'Care Bear stare' attack? Surely that's a mistake...

**SkrawnyNob**

They have the Brotherhood of Psykers USR, so each unit with one or more psykers provides only one warp charge.

And yes, the large blast that gets stronger with each psyker is no longer available to ANY psyker unit that I know of. However, they do still have access to Prescience, adding WCs for your other psykers, and increasing your henchmen units' DTW(ichfire) defence.

Psychic barrage got moved into telekenese anyway

**Jimsolo**

Goddammit. I spent months collecting bits for my retinues, now totally wasted. This is seriously annoying.

Sigh.

Do iBooks codexes update automatically? Or do I have to go somewhere for that? Do I have to pay to download it again?

Yes they normally update themselves.

If not there's an update option within ibooks. No you don't have to pay again.

You can tell i hadn't updated from the posts above

You just need to visit your BlackLibrary or Itunes account and update

Sorry guys you are wrong about everything stated this thread.

If you have 3 individual psykers in 3 separate Inquisitorial units, they generate 3 charges and DO NOT share perils unless they are in the same unit. They also generate their own individual psychic powers as long as they are not in the same unit. BoS only applies to units of BoS psykers together in one unit. Otherwise, you'd have GK armies vaporizing everytime a non IC blundered.

You literally repeated just about everything stated in this thread. So if they're wrong, so are you.

April fools?
