Priest

"Let me preach His name!"

The Priest embodies true faith and devotion to the Emperor of Mankind. Wielding naught but the Eviscerator, he is armed with his faith, inspiring all around him to greater feats of heroism in the name of the God Emperor. Extremely zealous and perhaps a bit off his rocker, but not more so than the Psyker.

Tactics

The Priest is an excellent choice to attach to Guardsmen Squads as soon as he is available. His damage buff stacks with the Execute aura from a nearby Commissar and the Weapon Specialization research leading to incredible firepower out of any squad he is attached to. In Tier 3, attaching him to Kasrkin and Ogryns can make sure the squads survive difficult situations through Fanaticism as well as increasing their already impressive firepower. Ogryns especially become deadly with a Priest attached, ripping through infantry, vehicles, and buildings alike with ease.
