G'day all, going to give a Redemptionist-heavy Cawdor gang a go for the first time for a few skirmish games. Had a couple of questions for anyone that's played them before. Firstly, the Deacon (Champion) has me puzzled - a better BS than WS, yet his skill sets throw to melee . . . I was thinking a grenade launcher and maybe just have some fun by giving him the Headbutt skill as a nice little D2 attack if he was called on to get up close and personal (and survived the first round). Second thing - the fire pike. 140 credits for a S4 -2AP flamer - I get why it doesn't get great press (even though it looks cool!). Anyone used one? Am I better off to convert it into another grenade launcher? (And then if I do that, do I make the Deacon a melee fighter with a chainaxe and stub gun and give him Devotional Frenzy?) Any tips or discussion greatly appreciated! TIA!

G’day all. Rules interpretation query (I’m sure someone will have had this happen). The situation is: Player A declares a fighter will charge. Player B immediately declares his Enforcer brute will use its Got Your Six Skill to perform a shoot action at the charging fighter. Player A has another fighter with the Overwatch skill with a ready marker and in LOS of the brute - can Player A perform a shoot action targeting the brute and potentially interrupt its attempted interruption? On the basis of the wording of Overwatch where it specifies the enemy declaring an ‘action’, I feel like it’s a legitimate play. Thoughts?
