Hello to all on LO, I've been gazing through the special characters section of the army book and I was instantly drawn to the little Astromancer. He sounds like a great pacakage for a hero class character for the type of scale army I hope to expand to. (1750pts for those who are curious.) However there is one question that sprung to mind when I was considering giving him a Temple Guardian retinue and it goe's a little like this: The TG gain the benefits of 'Sacred Duty' when accompanying a Slaan Mage-Priest, so this would mean that Tetto'eko wouldn't be able to give them such a benefit. However in the fluff of the character entry it describes the awesome amount of reverence the little Skink gets from those acting as his guadians, check out page 69 for more info. In following to this lore surely the TG would benefit from Tetto'eko to gain 'Sacred Duty' wouldn't they? Cheers for stopping by and take care!
No, I don't think they would. It boils down to the rule being used. If it is in the rule book, then yes. As fluffy as it is, it just will not work that way. He is fun to play though. I have never gotten his cosmic ability to work effectively. The re-roll on the comet is awesome though.
