Lol.. I snowmobiled his title! I'm so freakin' fuunny.. can you see what I did? I'm not homophobic... I took out 'Spoon' ..
Psychic powers. They got quiet
sp. "quite" (let's get this snowmobile a rockin' properly lol) the shake up in 6th Edition didn't they? With a standard set of disciplines much like fantasy they really opened up the utility of the spoon benders in the grim dark future.
But are people really looking at these new tools "properly"
?and (I promise this snowmobile won't just focus on literacy amongst the blogerati here at Sons!) I say that because a lot of the time I see or hear people say something to the effect of "well unless you can take divination what's the point". The Divination Discipline and more specifically Prescience is the golden child of this new aspect of 40k.
(Golden Child.. what a film! Whatever happened to Eddie Murphy...Dr Dolittle? c'mon..) Rerolls are king in a dice game, just ask Blood Bowl players, and mitigating the chances of bad rolling and improving the chances of getting a great roll for a unit for either shooting or combat is hyper powerful....but its not the whole story. Nid players for example are probably the next most vocal about the joys of Biomancy powers; having used the list and Discipline myself I know this to be a terribly frightening prospect to face. But still I come across players that seem genuinely surprised that they have been enfeebled twice and shot to death by gaunts.
Generally speaking, the trend seems to be for Enfeeble NOT to stack.. depsite my personal opinion that it does.. I now play it that it doesn't stack.. Best way I think, play at a disadvantage and when it gets ruled in your favour in a future FAQ..well...sweet! But yeah, in an army that can field 20-30 psychic powers, stacking Enfeeble sure does fuck people up good! Much like Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop.. seriously.. Dr Dolittle - it still hurts.
