Questions about Ahriman

[Meir Link]

Does Ahriman have the ability to attempt to nullify psychic powers from other armies?

Same question but about Chaos Sorcerers aswell, as i dont see a psychic hood entry in their profiles but thought it a bit strange espically if Ahriman could not...

Ok Meir Link, I guess I will jump in on this one here. Ahriman and normal Chaos Socerers can not try to cancel psychic powers because they don't have the psychic hood listed in their wargear options. Personally I would have them equipped with it. Think about it, Ahriman, Master of all the dark psychic powers, ultimate wizard in the entire game ( don't know if that is true or not), He should be able to. But he can't. q_p

Unfortunately, unlike in fantasy no matter how good a sorcerer is, they can't cancel out the powers of others without special wargear. Chaos's only anti phsychic is kharn's resistance to it, but that only works if they target him directly.

I would like to see some form of phsychic defense for chaos, even if it is only for ahriman, or is an expensive wargear option, at the moment we just seem to miss out.
In "What would you most like changed?" I made up my own rules for types of defense, my favourite being rod of khorne, but I also had versions for all of the 4 gods.

Actually the master of all dark psychic powers, would be Magus the Red. But Azek (Ahriman) is a close second. Btw if you havent read Prospero Burns you should. It pains me to see such a good guy like Ahriman fall to the ruinous powers. His intentions were always for the best of his legion, not like Magus who thought the same but was so full of himself that he thought he was the same as his father.

You should also read Thousand Sons (i think thats what its called) it tells alot about the Thousand Sons and about Ahriman and how they were trying to do what was best for the Imperium but were betrayed by the emperor and the rest. Not that i think what they did in the end was the best or anything, just that its tragic.
