Tangamarine Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Can a librarian use his close combat powers (quickening and might of the ancients) in any turn of combat? even if he didn't assault? Thanks Brother Dvorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Trickster Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Yes he can. You do not have to be assaulting to use these powers. But you can off-course only use the powers in your own turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangamarine Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 But you can off-course only use the powers in your own turns. Are you sure? Because you can use your force weapon in an opponents turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeattleDV8 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 BRB pg. 50 " Psykers can use onr psychic power per player turn." This by no means allows psychic shooting attacks as they must follow the shooting rules, (ie your turn only). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Trickster Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Well these powers are not shooting powers, but in the power entry it states that they are used "at the start of the librarian's assault phase." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agrab Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 No, The powers state that they are used at the start of the Libbies assault phase, meaning his turn and only his turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Trickster Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 No, The powers state that they are used at the start of the Libbies assault phase, meaning his turn and only his turn Is this not the same as I just wrote? Well these powers are not shooting powers, but in the power entry it states that they are used "at the start of the librarian's assault phase."

Isiah Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 No need to apologise Agrab – though reading other answers would be helpful :(.. It's a common fault in forums like this that folks just read the original question and then hit "Reply" without reading subsequent posts. But The Trickster, no need to jump in like that.

Tangamarine Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 "at the start of the librarian's assault phase." But since he is in the combat, isn't it his assualt phase? Since force weapon and possibly holocaust (don't quote me on that) can be used any turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkenheim Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 "at the start of the librarian's assault phase." But since he is in the combat, isn't it his assualt phase? Since force weapon and possibly holocaust (don't quote me on that) can be used any turn the force weapon doesn't specify whos turn it can be used it, hence it can be used in both players assault phases. if a rule states 'at the start of X's Assault Phase' then it refers to the owning players turn, rather than any assault phase the model is involved in. Some powers just state they may be used during certain phases, but if there is no mention of which players phase then it cn be used in either, without checking i assume holocaust says 'may be used during the assault phase' and not 'may be used during the GKs assault phase' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangamarine Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 If it can't be done there goes my counter assault idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koremu Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I wondered the same thing and sadly got shot down. To me the phrase "the Librarian's assault phase" implied the Assault Phase that the model partakes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agrab Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 If it can't be done there goes my counter assault idea It can not be done, but he is still extremely good in counter attacking if you load him up the right way All models have phases, which coincide with their player's phase. His shooting, movement, and assault phases are my (assuming I am the player) phases. Otherwise, he could shoot his powers every player's turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
