    Cryptek ''lightning field''

    Hey, just planning on converting some warriors w/ lychguard/deathmark bits into crypteks. Just one question on the lightning field option. Pg. 85 in the dex says, ''when an enemy unit successfully moves into assault w/ the cryptek... the assaulting unit immediately suffers D6 str8 AP5 hits. I was wondering if this only works if the cryptek (and/or his squad) is assaulted and not if the cryptek assaults an enemy unit. I know the codex specifically states ''the assaulting unit...'' but just in case, i was wondering what you guys thought. I didn't check the FAQ 'cause honestly it's late and I'm too tired to.

    As the rule says, it only works when being assaulted.
