Hi!

Ouch, good catch on that one, so that one doesn't need to be eliminated.

Good one.

Remember that Cloud of Flies and Aura of Slaanesh are NOT psychic
powers, but special abilities which are always in effect... all the
Magi have 3 psychic powers...

They are especially feared due to their ability to regenerate wounds.
A Bloodletter model that is slain is not removed but placed on its
side, in the end phase roll one D6 for every Bloodletter on its side
and on a roll of 4+ it regenerates the wound, is restored and may be
given orders normally in the next orders phase. If the roll is
failed the model is removed and counts toward the unit break point.
Models: Bloodletter models from GW Chaos sprue.

The elimination of either type of horror counts toward determining
the Break Points for VP purposes. Models: Horror models from GW Chaos
sprue.

> Tzeentch Magi*
> Terror Wave �` Place the Wave Serpent (Eldar vehicle template)
template touching the Magi at the center so the arrow is pointing in
the desired direction. Move the template D6 x 10 cm (d6 x 5 cm) in
that direction. Any enemy model the wave passes over must make a
morale check (except for those not affected by morale), a roll of 1
always fails. Roll a D6 for each model that fails. On a roll of
1�`2 the model is destroyed. 3�`6 means the model is immobilized,
they may not move or fire and get �`2 CAF. If the wave moves into
contact with a shielded Titan, roll to see if the power is nullified.
[The wave moves 2 D6 x 5 cm each subsequent turn. If a double is
rolled for movement, remove the wave following its movement. The
Tzeentch magi can only have one Terror Wave in play at a time. This
is a physical psychic power. (remove this part)]

units must roll 5 or 6 or else go on Fall Back Orders. If a 1 is
rolled remove the model. Psykers may re-roll but the second roll is
final. Titans will suffer head damage if the shields fail to nullify
the power and the Titan does not roll 5�`6. This is considered a non-
physical psychic attack.
> Inferno of Change �`use flame template. Any model under the
template is hit on 4+ (ignore cover modifiers to hit). Models hit
must save (+1 modifier) or be destroyed. A roll of 1 on the armor
save always fails. This is a physical psychic power.

(friend or foe) within 15 cm of the Magi must make a saving throw (+1
modifier, if the unit has no save its save for this attack is a 6) or
