ChaoticEric Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I'm watching a grey knights batrep on miniwargaming where he's using Draigo and I noticed two things I didn't recognise from the rules; - He was casting cleansing flame with draigo - He was rerolling failed dices when taking psychic tests with draigo I thought that since draigo knows more than two psychic powers which are not the primaris and he's ml2 he's not allowed to generate any further psychic powers and therefore he can't know cleansing flame? Is there any way to reroll failed dices when taking psychic tests with draigo? I couldn't find any special rules to that effect for him? He's with a unit of paladins, perhaps they can buy something to make it possible?

ChaoticEric Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Wasn't draigo rerolling it seems, ot was a librarian also in the same unit. Draigo is still casting cleansing flame though.

IndigoJack Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Well, the libre applies to all models in 12", so draigo can also reroll 1s on psychic tests. But yeah, draigo can't generate any more powers because there is nothing that says he's allowed to Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3966397 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deamon Wolf Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 1 I am at work so cannot watch it but Dragio nolonger has cleansing flame as a Power , only the Book allows us to reroll powers on a similar subject I have been watching Challenge the Scorpion on Youtube and it appears that the Grey Knight Player has been changing Dragios power to include invisibility I thought that they our powers were set for our named bods what do u guys think?

Quixus Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 You are right, Draigo knows the Primaris power and three other set powers from the Daemonology (Sanctic) list. Nothing more, nothing less.

jeffersonian000 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Were you watching an older 5th or 6th Ed video? Their more recent 7th Ed videos are pretty spot on.

jkhan43 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 The only thing I can think of is if the game wasn't recent, and they were using the FAQ that came out for GK during 6th edition I think, which allowed some characters to generate powers from tables of their choice instead of being confined to using sanctic alone. Otherwise they're doing it entirely wrong. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3966587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Coolpants Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Striking scorpions grey knight player is atrocious, although he was on a winning streak. He had very little knowledge of the rulebook, it seemed like he was mixing and matching our old codex and new codex, and doing stupid things like casting hammerhand on dreadknights, giving draigo his old stats and extra powers, yet using all the current rules for other things like heavy 6 or blast heavy psycannons and whatnot. Just read all the comments for the videos and you'll see all the hate he was getting aha. Every video including the grey knights had lots of comments pointing out the rule mistakes, yet he continued them throughout. And miniwargaming... Well it's miniwargaming haha, they always mess things up, but I don't mind for their games because they just seem like complete banter batreps (just like the title says) and they mess up a little with all armies, so you come to expect it.

Reclusiarch Darius Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm watching a grey knights batrep on miniwargaming That should've been the warning sign. I mean, I like Mike and some of the others, but they do not know how to play at all. Their batreps are mainly for the lulz. Never ever believe anything they say about tactics. Plus as you probably noticed, they routinely fail at playing by the rules.

jeffersonian000 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Well, miniwargaming are about the only people that put out 7th Ed GK Vs videos, pretty much every other video out there is 5th or 6th Ed.

Sorry to hear they went full Re-Re on it. Yeah well we stopped being a meme army after our update, so no one cares about GK anymore. Not even the players themselves, to a large extent. I'm bored with the army personally, I'm branching out into 30k Mechanicum and I'll probably get back into Tau at some point. 7th edition itself is just depressing. Vehicles are still largely irrelevant, and xenos smash you into mush without even trying. I'm not surprised people can't be bothered making batrep vids. I feel the same way.

ChaoticEric Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 That's why I have both tau and eldar laying around at home as well, for those times I want to win despite being a mediocre player My personal opinion is that MWG are the most entertaining batreps out there but I'm on the other hand not into the whole tournament scene. They might be getting some rules and tactics wrong but this game is still only about entertainment for me, I don't want to take it too seriously :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3967889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Coolpants Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think 'bluetablepainting' are the best of both worlds, they aren't as fun (but still fun) and they usually don't get rules wrong (although they've been known to forget some) plus they post all kinds of hobby related stuff Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3967925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deamon Wolf Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 look for i think its Jayknight productions or Jayknight batreps he is pretty good for 7th ed rules and 7th ed bat reps and he is rather entertaining he uses Grey knights , Orks , and Dark Angels alot Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3973976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishagu Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Both the batreps recently put out by Striking Scorpion that feature grey knight get a myriad of rules wrong. For example, the GK player is casting hammerhand on Dreadknights and using their doomfists at initiative 1! The draigo player featured in the mwg batrep gets various rules wrong as well. look for i think its Jayknight productions or Jayknight batreps he is pretty good for 7th ed rules and 7th ed bat reps and he is rather entertaining he uses Grey knights , Orks , and Dark Angels alot Really not a fan of Jay. He's plain annoying and rather boring. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304169-draigo-and-psychic-powers/#findComment-3975542 Share on other sites More sharing options...
