Frenzied and Stupid Plaguepriests?; scrying stone rules question

Yesterday while building a new armylist I noticed we now have a model that can be frenzied and stupid at the same time: The Plaguepriest, after using the Scrying Stone (the crystal ball that offers 3+ward save against 1st wound suffered).

What happens if a frenzied Plaguepriest becomes stupid?

A- He loses his frenzy (would probably mean the entire unit does as well)

B- As long as he is still frenzied and thus immune to psychology the effect of his stupidity is ignored

C- Stupidity rules are applied and ONLY if "move as normal" is rolled he is subject to the frenzy charge rules.

D- Stupidity rules are applied as long as nothing is in charge range, if there is something in range frenzy overrides the stupidity

E- Both rules are fully applied, meaning it's even possible to move once due to stupidity and frenzy-charge after that.


There's so many possible ways to play this, it's really confusing.

Immune to Psychology only makes you Immune to Fear, Terror and Panic.

Frenzy makes you immune to psychology, therefore, until he loses his frenzy, he is immune to stupidity. ie, stupidity would only come into effect only after he has lost a round of combat.

Mutate: ninja'd. I'll take a look at the wording of the rules but I'm pretty sure you're immune to ALL pschology. *shrugs*


Mutate 2: this looks like it will have to be covered in an FAQ... Although it looks like Stupidity overrules frenzy as it is a "test at start of turn" rule. I'm going to have to change my answer and go with:
Both rules apply. :P
How do they rise up?

Glod has nothing. :ph43r:

Yeah, Immune to Psychology changed between 6th and 7th Editions - it no longer confers immunity to Stupidity or to Terror.

Check out p. 53 of the Rulebook.

you would test for stupidity and if passed then the charge rules for frenzy would apply however if you fail and end up in combat you would still get your extra attack for frenzy.

just be careful if he is stupid and in a unit as his stupidity would affect them
Daniel cannot possibly exist in a dimensional state.

Recent studies show that people who have attempted to comprehend Daniel have either disappeared, died spontaneously, or driven themselves into a pertinent state of insanity and/or catatonia.

He is subject to both. If he fails Stupidity he's stupid, otherwise he's subject to Frenzy. Just ask any WoC player what the deal is with a Khornate character with the Helm of Many Eyes.
