I agree they do say that, whereas the other sub-categories. What I find interesting is, Witchfire seems to make you follow its rules for anything called a psychic shooting attack in the codices, so it seems the roll to hit would now apply to a number of older Psychic powers, including ones that logic dictates should perhaps not be covered, such as Blood Lance.
#Bane with witchfire update
Last update was at 2 21:04:17Įven if they didn't automatically inherit all the Witchfire rules, then modify them, which is the most reasonable way to handle it IMO, Focussed Witchfire still quite clearly states it follows ALL the normal rules for Witchfire. So the questions (that have no RAW answers) are:ġ) Does Focused Witchfire really have to roll 'to hit' as the basic Witchfire rules seem to indicate?Ģ) If so, and the psyker is a character and he rolls a '6' to hit, are any and all wounds caused by the focused witchfire precision shots?ģ) If so, how does this interact with the focused witchfire rule about the psyker getting to choose the target only if he passes his Psychic Test on a '5' or less?Īctually reading the 4th paragraph of the Witchfire rules on page 69 have led me to conclude that all the specialty types of Witchfire (Beam, focused witchfire, maelstrom, nova) are probably not supposed to have to roll to hit, although if that's the case it really is quite unclear which if any of the targeting restrictions for general witchfire (such as LOS) apply. The focused witchfire rules don't seem to notice that witchfire is already supposed to be rolling to hit, which means if it is done by a psyker that is a character (as most are) we now have two different (conflicting) mechanics in play simultaneous telling us when or if the psyker's player gets to choose the target model. What is the problem with that? You don't roll to hit with a witchfire template (the witchfire rules tell you that) so there's no chance to roll precision shots even if the psyker is a character.īut back to the question of precision witchfire.there seems to be disconnect in the rules that doesn't make sense.
