I equipped a Soritas with a full set of power armor, but she got hit quite a few times and took a bunch of damage.
Of course, I'm playing on insane difficulty.
Psykers are terrifyingly useful, but the cost of their abilities and the fact taking 2 ranks to reduce the cost (which is necessary if you plan on having your psyker do more than 1-2 things per battle) takes out another specialization/trait makes them far less crucial than having a squad of commissars.
If I bring 8 commissars (I'd feel like a cheater, actually) this is going to be absolutely dumb- each battlespeech grants all allies 40 AP, except for himself, basically, I can cast battlespeech 8 times in a row (with a long cooldown after, but still), granting 7 other commissars 40 AP each for a grand total of 2240 AP.
Thats some insane burst potential... Screw Stormtroopers, Inquisitors should just recruit Commissars.

FlugenteTrue, though these AP will be lost next turn. Still, I didn't have that method in mind
I'm known for breaking game systems, don't worry ; )
My players died horribly hue hue he...
FlugenteNot sure wether there is an AP limit in place here, but one would be needed I guess... an easier way would be to change the mechanic so that one can only benefit from one speech per turn, which would somewhat ease this.
They are capped at 100 AP max, but its simple; have all your commissars spend most of their AP, except 1 who will inspire the rest. Then he shoots an enemy as well, and the rest of your commissars shoot, leaving 1 to inspire again, then he shoots as well; repeat until all battlespeeches used.
I just had 4 commissars charge into 16 opponents and kill 12 of them, and critically injuring another 3... in a single round.
IT WAS GLORIOUS. HIS ENEMIES WERE CLEANSED THIS DAY.
If you nerf it, I think the only-1-speech-per-turn is pretty reasonable, but I won't have GLORIOUS CHARGES anymore.
