After going once through the new codex, and the ensuing diarrhea that comes with, I have a few questions:

#1) What happened if my Tervigon (psyker level 1) roll a 6 on the power table (warp blast/ 2 charges). I guess I'm screwed right?

#2) Zoantrhope "brotherhood of psycker"? I read 3 times in the rulebook but I can't figure it out. Am I making one psychic test for the whole brood or one per model?If I have 3 zoanthropes in the brood the warp blast get assault 3 but do I roll to hit once per model (9 shots) or once for the whole brood ( 3 shots)?

1. MRB, page 418, top right paragraph.

2. The unit is a single psyker, so it generates warp charge together and casts powers together. Think of the whole unit as a single model.

Just make sure that i'm playing it right:
In a brood of 3 zoanthropes i roll for psychic test once, and i roll to hit 3 times since warp blast would be assault 3. If roll a peril a randomly select a model to get the wound. Am i correct?

That's right. One test, 3 rolls to hit because it's Assault 3, and one random guy gets whacked on a perils because there are no characters.

Would it not be since the unit rolls to its physic as A unit when you roll to hit you roll 1 to hit as A unit. I dont see how you can split the physic test and shooting up like that. Imo both have to be done the same way?

No, not if its Assault 3. The '3' means you roll three dice to hit.

I suppose only one of them needs to have LoS and be within range then? thats atleast something.

Yep. The nice thing about BoP/S shooting is that you can have a single model in LoS to shoot. Then, when the opponent shoots back, he can only kill a single model! You then move your next model out from behind the hill/bastion and do it again.

But one deny the witch blocks all 3the shots.

BoP also means you only roll once to generate their second power right? So instead of WB plus 3 rolls you get WB plus 1?

Yes, they are one psyker, same as a grey knight squad....
