4/5 stars. Strong psyker praetor.
Background.
The one time tutor to the Thousand Sons' Primarch, Amon served as both equerry and emissary during the Great Crusade. He was really the lead in the legions intelligence gathering unit though. Post Prospero, he became an embittered individual and felt very cut off from his brothers.
Strengths.
Amon has a praetor level stat line and some interesting weapons which are mainly based around poison. The ranged weapon fires random number of shots at short range to cause not only poison, but also stun and breaching. He only has one shot with this though. Boo. The melee weapons is also poisoned, but at 2+ with AP=2 which is nice.
As a psyker, he comes with Divination and Telepathy built in which is more than a reasonable combination.
The icing on the cake though has to be infiltrate to within 9 inches. This is outstanding and makes for an excellent turn 1 ranged attack and some psychic powers at the ready as well.
Weaknesses.
Poisoned and one shot on the ranged weapon isn't the best, but at least it is interesting!
Overall.
Worth the points and makes for an interesting alternative to Ahriman overall. I really like the infiltrate that he has going on.
