Not if you use the tunnels stratagem that usually can put you right in the thick of things pretty quick.
Also if not then start on the border and walk across, not that hard to survive one round of firepower, especially if you Faith tank your small units.

Had an enemy Thunderhawk fly to the front of the formation and lost two of the Exorcists in the subsequent enemy shooting phase. When my turn came back around I fired off with Exultation, managed to get 20 out of 24 for the shots fired. Of the 20, 1 managed to break through the Thunderhawk's defenses and I proceeded to roll two 6's and a 5 for the super-heavy damage table.

The troops inside was a Thunderwolf mounted named HQ, a Wolf Guard(?) terminator squad as escort, some other troops, and a dreadnaught. That one missile took out a sizable chunk of my opponents army. A moment that will insure that I field the Chorus again and again.
