Yes cleansing flame is a nova and as such is does affect flying things.
Just that the strenght sucks against most things that fly that you really need to shoot down like helldrakes and super MCs.

Super. Thanks for feedback. At least something that hits them automatically and therefore force them to make grounding tests:-).. even dice can get tired of throwing 3+ all the time cheers

I was of the belief that in order to force a ground test you now actually have to wound the thing and even then its a small chance of success.

You are right, brother - it has changed since 6th Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad ... my mistake.. at least till today I was not aware that cleansing flame has ability to hit the flyers Laughing

Yeah cleansing flame is how I got most wounds on the flyrant. Unfortunately didn't fail his grounding test either.

As far as casting multiple powers from a Dreadknight, it is possible. The Rules do not determine how many psychic powers can be casted. However, most tournament scenes are saying that a model can only cast as many powers as his masterly lvl... and a lot of players in surrounding stores are starting to just house rule it.

The Gatling gun is not that bad! It works extremely well vs multi wound models... Necrons, Dark Eldar, have even taken out a few centurions. In every game against Tyranids, I have taken out 2 monstrous creatures with it. 1 ground and 1 Crone each time. When that happens, totally worth it. I would say for 30 points it is a solid gun. I have used it with the incinerator to obliterate A 4+... Incinerator hits and Gatling gun cleans up. I usually run one gun every 3 Dreadknights...

Cleansing flame is amazing, most of the time. I have killed 2 crones and put 2 wounds on one tyrant in one casting. Put a 10 man squad in a Space Wolf drop pod... you are golden! That gets you 4 WC dice... and two shots at casting it!

Do not forget about the Space Wolf formation... 1 HQ = Rune Priest and 2 Elite slots = 2 servitors... then you may take up to 4 drop pods! Not a bad deal for purifiers that are unable to deepstrike!

I don't have my rulebook with me but I'm pretty sure that it says that Mastery level restricts the amount of Psychic powers you can cast per model.
