So,
I'm starting a Blood Angels (or perhaps Blood Drinkers) scriptor. He should be meele-combat focused, using his psypowers for chaos and show-ofs.
The Idea is to make him very bloody. He has no "utility" powers, just purely offensive, with the maingoal is to get boiling blood.
Since I have had no Psykers yet in my campains, some questions:
On the 1000 start XP I was planning on getting him "Sanctioned" (to the psi event that lets all stones bleed blood), Pilot (Jumppack), Calling (not sure about this translation, test on willpower next psipower gains psirank +1)
So, first of all:
Is Calling ever beeing used? Or is the turn just not worthwhile and you better do another Psypower / Attack?
Next on the Equipment:
1) Jumppacks: Is it possible for Scriptors to get Jumppacks? I found nothing against that, but I didn't know of any Scriptors using Jumppacks yet. (I'd like to have a jumppack because it adds amazing movment flexibility and helps me to get into meele - at least until he can learn the blood wings Psypower)
2) Psi Weapons: Are there any Psi Weapons other then Blade and Staff? I don't realy like any of the options, tho actually i'm sticking with staff (if there are: In what rulebook may i find them? As I have to wait for the german translations i might pick up that rulebook in english^^) - Two handed would be great, like a gleve.
3) Arm mounted Bolt Pistol: I'm thinking of giving the Psyker a arm mounted Bolt Pistol (cause of carrying a 2-handed meele weapon). Either with an Ammunition Exchanger (Most likly to get the exploding Ammunition, for moar blood!^^) or even an Ammunition Backpack (tho this is a bit unlikly
Backpack attached to a bolt pistol
), so he has an arm mounted bolt pistol with 250 shots each mission. Maybe if there are enough points even a laser point scope for better bf.
So what are your thoughts on the arm mounted Bolt pistol, alternative Psi Weapons (I'd love a Psi-Chainsword, but nothing like that exists as far as i know
^^ would fit the bloody theme tho
) and may Scriptors use Jumppacks / Is it possible to Mount a Jumppack on top of an Ammunition Backpack?^^
