On your powers to give an example of Weapon Virus I played against Chaos just two days ago and they didn’t take it. Why’s it a good example then? Well they took the one you’ve been warning against, Psychic Shriek, and straight to Nurgle Rot rather than rolling. They must have cast Psychic Shriek at least 3 times, maybe even 4, and not once did it do a thing. Like you say too many hoops to jump through and I got lucky and won two Deny the Witch rolls.

Rum, Sodmy and the Lash – that is what emiers are buid on 😉
Weapon Virus came in handy for me the first time i used it. i unleashed it onto some deathmarks and luckily his harbinger of despair blew himself up instead of frying typhus and his squad of plague marines. I know it just came down to luck but if it wasn’t for that power my squad would have died, instead they just set there and laughed at those daft self-destructing machines 🙂
use weapon virus on vehicles or units you are about to assault. their overwatch hits on 6s but 1s can kill them. also with vehicles it cant hurt for say a leman russ with a battlecannon and 3x heavy bolters to potentially sit out a turn or gets hot.
