un modifide save of 3+ no matter what type of weapon its it but I,ve never
played them that way. For, the Slann magus is in a way no different then a
Weird boy, He really has no Psychic powers. He is someone that can control
the powers from the warp. Which in a way are physical / non-psychic powers.
As for cutting down the distance forget it a Slann mage cost 3 time a normal
mage, and the distance just balance it out, exspecially with no psyhic save.
As for the Titan having a save it would be inpossible for it takes all of
the mage's power and mind control just to operate this monstorisity. Thus
the week link in the Slann, all armies have one and good players will find
them. A good tatic for playing slann is to try and keep Skink scouts by your
valued models, in this way you may target HQ's and he would have to be
within 25cm to shoot them, fair trade acouple of your whimpy skinks for his
warlock. For once he is dead your Titan is free again. Just keep in mind
that the Slann mage really only bends the power of the warp with his mind,
he really does not have psychic powers as the ohters do.
