Using Psyker powers from drop pods

Recommended Posts

All right, it's a constant pain for me that I play Ultramarines and can't use Tiggy's powers turn one if he drops in with Sternguard. I tried to find the particular rules for this, but I can't seem to do that. Does anyone know the relevant pages that I can go to for this information? Also, I'm not sure if that FAQ article on "when simultaneous things happen, you choose what happens first" in terms of reserves and psyker powers and such affects this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Essentially the question is, "can I use psyker powers the turn I enter play from deepstrike, and why or why not?"

Check the rules for reserves. Page 125. Basically any power that must be manifested at the start of the movement phase can't be used in a turn that you arrive from reserve. Powers that are used during the movement phase or in other phases are fine.

Just so I'm absolutely sure, this doesn't change that, does it?

 

Q: Blessings are manifested ‘at the start of the Psyker’s Movement

phase’ – does this mean they happen simultaneously with Reserves
rolls, Outflanking rolls etc and if so which is resolved first? (p68)
A: They do occur simultaneously – as such, the player whose
turn it is decides in what order these things occur as per
page 9 of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.

No that faq only applies to Psykers not in reserve.

 

So you can do all of your powers from guys on the table, then roll reserves then move the reserves on

 

OR

 

you roll for reserves, then do powers then bring on the reserves.

 

Either way any psykers coming in from reserve have missed the chance to cast powers.
