Howdy Folks,

This may have already been addressed but I couldnt find anything via the search so I thought I'd pose the question. Forgive me if this is a repeat.

Regarding the rules in the side bar called 'Only the insane shall prosper...' on page 297, if the tens digit of your IP's is double or more then the fear rating of the source causing fear then you do not have to make the fear test.

My problem with this rule is once someone gets to 80 IP they are effectively immune to fear checks up to and including staring into the warp and hence will not obtain any new IP's. So how does anyone ever go completely bonkers? (read 100 IP)

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on how to handle this.

Thanks,

Mordicious

Fear Checks are hardly the only thing that can inflict Insanity.

As stated by Cifer. Certain advances gives you insanity, certain encounters also (you know, a Slaanesh cult eating babies in a ritualized way will grant insanity to all but the most hardened and, well, insane of the inquisitors).

Also, remember there are ways to lower your Insanity (at least I think there are in the Ascension supplement, dunno if you can find them anywhere else). And the insanity table is quite... harsh, if you enforce it properly.
