Title: Exorcist and a Holy book
Post by: Mathyoo on April 05, 2014, 01:34:34 PM

Hey guys,

I'm setting up a scenario and I'd need a priest for it :P. Exorcist seems to be the most fitting profile and I was wondering, what exactly is a holy book? I can't find anything about it anywhere.

Is it simply the ability to fight ghosts with "blessed" rule? I can read under "sermon" that it can only be used once? Perhaps I've missed the rule somewhere?

I am not sure if I got the question right, are you looking for the exact rules or what a holy Book is?

Commonly holy Book means the Bible .
Just ignore me, o am sounding stupid again lol

I love the Artizan Thrilling Tales Priest as an exorcist, the one with the cross, instead of a book I would use the cross as count as.

Thanks, but I am asking about the rules for a "Holy book" weapon, equipped by an Exorcist, page 8 in ST2 :D

That is a great miniature, yeah. On my to buy list, but nowhere near the top at the moment :P. I got EM4 miniature with an open book and outstreched hand :P

Hello Mathyoo, you can find the rules for the Holy Book on pg 47 of the main rules, it can be a useful bit of kit, allowing you to dispel all ghosts within 5" of the holder & force resolve checks on daemons (also within 5") though it can only be used once per game, hope that helps.

It does, thanks! I was actually watching this page but somehow missed it. I should really start using extra gear in my games :D.

Thanks! I'll go play a game straight away :D
