It's reasonable I suppose. What's not reasonable is the other ~260 Marines waiting 40 turns without engaging it. "Meh, the Rhinos got it" isn't exactly an Astartes response to an enemy to kill.

[Rince Wind]

Maybe they were busy praying though.

It's the difference between using a psyker to enter the material realm (which all daemons do) and a daemon of Khorne possessing/skinriding a psyker (which they don't do. They kill them.) That's why all I really want is a descriptive text change. The end result is the same, dead psyker.

Except I haven't seen any fluff that says they do it differently when it comes to possession, do you have anything on that I could see? Would be interesting to check up on.

I can't really point to anything specific other than the half millions words worth of 40k novels I've read over the last 20 years. It's my impression.

I feel like you seem to think it's a Daemonhost, Nenjin, while I'm getting more of a 'HEEEEEEERE'S KHORNY' impression of them literally exploding from inside the psyker into the material realm to start wreaking havoc.

Which Khorne would totally do, as it kills the psyker and lets him have GLORIOUS COMBAT at the same time.



And we mustn't forget the magnificent Khornate Sorcerors that have been seen, often former Librarians, at that...

[nenjin]

Yeah, I think you're right. My reading of it makes me think Daemonhost But again, since there's no mechanical difference, that's why I just asked for a flavor text change so it's more clear. (I did preface this with pushing my glasses up.) It would be kinda cool if there was a difference between manifestation and actual possession. But that's a pretty minor want. (For the record though, under most circumstances, I think a manifestation would be worse than possession.)

In some cases, when you've got a Daemonhost and end up killing it it can end up manifesting anyways so it's a double whammy of a powered up individual who then spawns an angry daemon ready to start trouble.

Isn't the lore on that sort of stuff essentially "daemons do what they want lol warp" and anything is possible?

Perhaps the more accurate statement is "It's 40k and anything is possible."

Except progression.

Though G.W. Has shown with Fantasy that they like to break their toys on their way out.

Ciaphas Cain can progress.

Thus, he can do ANYTHING.

Ciaphas Cain can not the commissariat.

-Removed, didn't see the bug report email on the first page somehow, many apologies-

[nenjin]

"Moar dakka boss?

"Nah, I got dis."

[Akura]

It's probably already been asked, but how do I Necron Tomb? I've tried landing marines, attacking, raiding(equipped with a Plasma Bomb), but nothing happens.
