Chaos is back, and now there’s going to be Psychic power trouble. Checkout that latest news about Ectomancy, Heretech, Geomortis, and Sinisturm from GW!
The new Chaos Space Marines psychic powers are dark reflections of the powers wielded by loyalist Space Marines and present some truly formidable options to a general of Traitors and/or Renegades.
It’s hard to pick a favourite, as there are so many good ones, but we like ‘Flayerstorm’, where a Sorcerer can literally rip chunks off enemy vehicles and throw them at nearby units!
Games workshop sent out the following details to all their retailers about the upcoming Traitor’s Bane supplement Wednesday (and some earlier as well).
But before we get to all that, checkout the psychic power picture from the White Dwarf Preview below, and it’s counter-part in Fulmination:
Coruscating Blaze – Heretic Space Marines
Lightning Arc – Loyalist Space Marines
Wow look at that, it’s even the same psychic chart #3 position!
So we know the new Psychic Disciplines for the Heretics are:
Ectomancy
Geomortis
Sinisturm
Heretech
Could they indeed be the carbon copies of the four new disciplines from the Angels of Death supplement?
Ectomancy = Fulmination?
Geomortis = Geokenisis?
Sinisturm = Librarius?
Heretech = Technomancy?
Something big is coming for Chaos, but will Games Workshop finally answer the prayers of every Chaos players out there and make a rules set worthy of our attentions?
