frosteldar Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hello! I have come to the realization I may have been using my Kastelan protocols incorrectly. I reread that they automatically start in Aegis when deployed. So, if I do not have a Cybernetic Datasmith in my army, does that mean I can only change their protocol once with Binaric Overrirde? I had been setting them up in the shooty protocol. Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulfast Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Ys, you are correct. They always start in ageis and without a datasmith they can only change there protocol throu Binaric Override. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newdigitalGK Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 one exception if you have the Vigilas Campaign book There is a relic you can take there a regular techpriest can change the protocols if you take the Cybernetica Cohort specialist detachment.

Frostglaive Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I don't know how I feel about that relic to be honest. I can see the usefulness of it, maybe throwing it onto a Dominus or something... but that is a relic being taken for something a Datasmith does normally.

Izan Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Protocols and Datasmith need a rework of their rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frosteldar Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Thanks for pointing out the relic! I really should pick up that Vigilus campaign book.... The datasmith is just hard to fit in points-wise, when there are other items I want to take! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral_80 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 You can change protocols in 2 ways: Pay (waste) points on a datasmith, wait one turn, and fail 1/6 times (and thus pay 1cp to retry). Waste 0 pts, pay 1 cp and change exactly when you need it, at 100% success rate. There is no argument about which way is the good one. The other one is simply useless. As is the relic which goes with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
