You are doing right in that that is how the mechanic works in practice. You are doing in wrong in that you should probably roll lower next time.

Yeah it a brutal power. Makes mind war look like ****.

And yeah...you did roll a double 6 and a 5....thats pretty exceptional

Whats even better is when you can combo it with a full psyker battle squad to make the unit its aimed at leadership 2.

Nothing wrong with it. Epic roll, though.

This is the sort of thing they meant when they made "Psychic Devastation" a tagline for 6th ed.

Well if you rolled to hit, then you did it right. It won't always be that good, mind you! It is considered a very good power though.

Doom of Malan'tai with this replacing Cataclysm + Mycetic spore = pain.

Yes. 1000x times yes. Though fortunately the last time a friend used it, he hit Mephiston and I rolled under his Ld.
