Can a justicar have terminator armour and a psycannon?

I would like to have a PAGK squad with two Psycannons a Justicar with terminator armour and a psycannon and joined by my BC with a Psycannon.

This way I have a scoring unit with 4 Psycannons!!

(I relise this costs 331points)

That's an interesting build. Legally, I think you can do it. Cost is astronomical as you already pointed out but you will end up w/ a very tough scoring unit (100 pts for a justicar! affraid Razz )

The only grey area is the "wargear only" limitation on PAGK. It has always been a point of contention whether giving your justicar AA or TA circumvents this. Best to ask your local club what they think about it Very Happy

I have pondered my original question and it raise's even more questions Shocked

If my justicar is in terminator armour does he now have 3 attacks and can he shoot his heavy weapon without penalty??

That's the first thing I looked up Razz He still ends up w/ 3 attacks yes. He loses 1 because he loses True Grit but he gains 1 because of our TA rules.

And yes, he can move and fire his p-cannon up to 36" Very Happy

Thanks for the clarification brother Rivan Very Happy

I think that 100points for a terminator justicar with a psycannon is a fair price when you consider a regular GKT with a Psycannon costs 71points, the justicar is scoring and has an extra attack!!

Unfortunately a Justicar cannot take terminator armour, if you look at the little number after it and check the chart just after the vehicle armoury only Inquisitors and Inquisitor Lords can take termie armour.
From a RAW standpoint I don't see why taking Artificier Armour wouldn't let you get a psycannon though, while PA is a form of TA they're still two separate pieces of wargear so limitations of one wouldn;t affect the other.

Good catch bigbri. Taking AA would also allow the purchase of a psycannon, his justicar just won't be able to move and shoot 36". Plus no 5+ invul of course.

Again, assuming MB's gaming club allows it Very Happy

It shouldn't be an issue, I've never heard of anyone actually disagree with doing this firstly because its totally legal according to the codex, and secondly because its so damn expensive who would complain Very Happy

He can buy artificer armor, a storm shield and Psycannon, but he's just the same price as 2 GKT. I thought about it and tried setting an Inquisitor with AA, Psycannon and a sage(+1 BS) as a BS5, S6, 36" 75pt sniper.
