I know this has been debated before, but I'll bring it up again with the new one. Does the hammerhand stack on top of itself?

I don't recall seeing anything that says multiple powers don't stack, but that doesn't mean I didn't miss it. Did anyone see this?

Edit: As hammerhand is now a blessing, and a unit can only gain a particular blessing benefit once, there is no stacking.

They now explicitly say you can't stack the same power with itself

Yo have you got the page no im being blind and want to show a mate this before he tries it cheers

I don't have a physical copy so i can't give you a page number

its true, they dont stack, but with it now being +2 instead of +1 it doest need to stack.


With inquisitorial rad grenades and hammerhand, grey knights can double out any toughness 4 or lower models in the game and then force weapon the rest.

I can't find an explicit statement as CrownAxe is saying however, under "Types of Psychic Powers" it states "The benefit of any one particular blessing can only be gained once per unit per turn, but benefits from different blessings are cumulative"

Pretty sure that would mean that you can only cast Hammerhand on a unit once. Hammerhand would be by all definitions a blessing under the psychic rules and so that one particular blessing can only be gained once per unit per turn. (*Oh, hey, it even says in the BRB that Hammerhand is indeed a blessing, so ..)

Edit: 'Should have refreshed before posting..'

Found it. Hammerhand is a blessing. The benefit of a blessing can only be gained once per unit per turn.

End of that debate. Close thread.
