You should be saving for a preemptive True Res. Only 10,000 gp

I remember one Dark Heresy campaign where the majority of damage caused to the players was dropped grenades and Molotov cocktails.
“I’m telling you, molotov cocktails work. Any time I had a problem and I threw a molotov cocktail - boom, right away, I had a different problem.”
