1). Enfeeble – The psychic power from Biomancy has the potential to make all your strength 6 and higher attacks all cause auto death as they will not be double the toughness of a Space Marine at T3 while enfeebled. Remember you can not take Feel No Pain rolls on anything that causes Instant Death (or is double the models toughness)

2). Instant Death – This age old mechanic has the potential to just straight wreck 1+ FNP. Remember to activate force on weapons with it, and lob those S8+ weapons were they need be to negate the effects of that Feel no Pain!
