Psycannon

[LardO'Blood]

The psycannon entry confuses me. Does it ignore invulnerable saves, cover saves and 4-6+ armor saves?

Or invulnerable saves and 4-6+ armor saves?

The psycannon does not ignore cover saves nor armour saves. It only ignores invulnerable saves.

Correct, but it probably doesn't hurt to clarify that since the Psycannon is AP 4, and in that regard it works like every other ranged weapon in the game, it can ignore some armor saves.

A weapon's AP (AP4) rating 'defeats' armour (4+) saves. Saying they 'ignore' the armour opens a can of worms with regard to rules like FnP.

True.

RAW Psycannons allow you to take ONLY Armour saves against them, which means you're not allowed Cover Saves. It then goes on to specifically state Invulnerable saves cannot be taken.

 

This is of course not RAI which should allow you to get Cover Saves and is what everyone plays. Even as a GK player myself I play letting people take their cover saves.

I respect that
