Space Wolves Anti-Psyker

[Greggoman]

Hey guys I've still only had 2 games with space wolves, and I've just thought of something, do we as space wolves have anything that is anti-psyker, if so, what??

[Grey Mage]

Umm... Rune Priests. Second-best antipsyker unit in the game. Runic weapons are awesome.

 

And Wolf Tail Talismans- available on dreads and all the ICs- gives you a 5+ save, wich is pretty nice.

 

And of course, Njal- who is arguably the best anti-psyker model in the game, including GKs.

Rune Priest's come equiped with a Runic weapon that says "whenever an enemy model wucceedds on a Psychic test within 24" of the bearer, roll a dice - on the roll of a 4+ that power is nullified.

 

Additionally, HQs and certain elites can be given wolf tail talismans as wargear which lets you roll and nullify a psychic power on a 5+ if it affects the model or unit the model is with.;

 

EDIT: GM beat me to it.

Who's first, your beloved Eldar? (heretic )

Negatory- though Runes of Warding are certainly one of the better options out there they are entirely passive- your gambling your opponents luck sucks. I do love me some RoW though.

 

In any case the best is probly the Grey Knights. not because of any particular item, but simply because they have soooo many rules, wargear, and weapons that directly affect anything thats a psyker on top of the not-to-shabby psychic hood. That alot of these are close range, or CC abilities is mitigated by the GKs prodigious teleporting ability.

 

Just dont tell them I said so <_<

I think bolters are pretty anti-psyker.

I think bolters are pretty anti-psyker.

 

How about 5x long fangs missiles

Agreed. I think a well played and created list around GK libby, and dreads could shut down offensive psyker stuff.

Cheers fellas :P
