A player of mind asks...
Can he use two psyhic powers during his turn?
One is a sustained power (some sort of force field thingy > I don't know what its called LOL)
The other his TK Crushing ability (think "attack" power)
Please Advise?>
"You can only make one Standard Attack per turn, as you can only take one Action with the Attack sub-type and one Action with the Concentration sub-type per Turn"

Yes.
Why not?
If one is only Concentration, and one is only Attack, then absolutely. There is no conflict. You can absolutely, for example, do a Hallucination and then a Spontaneous Combustion.
The psyker can't manifest both Crush and Telekine Dome in the same turn. Crush is Attack and Concentration, while Dome is Concentration.
However, the psyker could cast Telekine Dome in one round, then sustain it and cast Crush in the next round. Sustaining a power doesn't have any action subtypes.
Thank You for the clarification Covered in Weasels > something this simple is very critical > !
Stay GAMING

OK > the powers are...
For Attacking
assail
The psyker reaches out with his mind to pluck up whatever objects
are available and hurl them at his target. If there is nothing suitable
nearby, the psyker can direct his mental energies directly at his foe,
pounding him with bolts of invisible force.
Value: 200 xp
Prerequisite: Willpower 40
Action: Half Action
Focus Power: Ordinary (+10) Willpower test
Range: 20 metres x psy rating
Sustained: No
Subtype: Attack, Concentration
Effect: If the psyker scores at least three degrees of success on
the Focus Power test for this attack, the target is also thrown 1d5
metres away and knocked Prone. Certain especially large targets
such as battle tanks, Greater Daemons, and Titans are immune to
this effect at the Game Master’s discretion.
Crush
Rather than using his abilities to turn inanimate objects into
weapons, the telekine focuses directly on his enemy to squeeze
him in an invisible fist of power. Unless the target can repel the
psychokinetic assault, he is bludgeoned horridly. Even should he
survive, the overwhelming psychic force nonetheless pins him in
place under a tremendous weight.
Value: 300 xp
Prerequisite: Willpower 45
Action: Half Action
Focus Power: Challenging (+0) Opposed Willpower test
Range: 10 metres x psy rating
Sustained: No
Subtype: Attack, Concentration
Effect: The psyker nominates a single target in range and line of
sight who opposes this power with a Toughness test. If the target
fails to resist the power, it suffers the attack below.
For defense...
telekine shield
Using the energy of the Warp, the psyker erects a wall of tangible
force that moves with him. The shimmering barrier stops bullets
and deflects blades, but as more and more kinetic energy is directed
at him, the psyker’s mental shield wears down.
Value: 200 xp
Prerequisite: Intelligence 40
Action: Half Action
Focus Power: Routine (+20) Willpower test
Range: Self
Sustained: Free Action
Subtype: Concentration
Effect: For the duration of the power, all of the psyker’s Hit
Locations count as being protected by cover with an Armour
Value equal to half this power’s psy rating. This shield can be
damaged just like normal cover by damage that exceeds the shield’s
Armour Value (see page 229). If the shield is reduced to 0
Armour points, the power stops, and is no longer sustained.
As mentioned by Weasels, you are limited to only one action of the Attack and Concentration subtypes per turn. This applies to all actions so your psyker cannot use Assail and then shoot someone with a laspistol, however he can use Telekine Shield and then shoot because those two actions don't exceed the limitation (one Attack and one Concentration).
