So a non-barrage template like flamethrower?
And please add that barrage ALWAYS scatter, even direct and barrage that
normally not scatter.

This power is nullified from a psy save? and if yes why? the Titan cast
this on himself, augment his ability to dodge incoming damage, as stated if
immobilized cannot use witch sight.

Someone can tell me why one should take a tremor cannon?
