Can I use Telekinesis Primaris Power: Assail to Strike Down Mephiston and then Jaws him so he will fail on a 4+?

i.e. Does Strikedown affecting Initiative count toward an Initiative test?

As long as the test does not say "unmodified", then yes. You use your current init / strength / etc value

Page 7 of the rulebook:
To make a characteristic test use the following procedure:
* Roll a D6 and compare the result to the relevant characteristic in the model's profile.

Wouldn't this mean the test is regardless of modifiers or are modifiers affect this profile?

Where do you think your init stat is listed, apart from your profile?

the current I stat is I(init)/2, like the rule tells you.

I agree with you but I think my opponent will cry foul (and he loves his Mephiston with It will not die and FNP from that biomancy power).

Is there an example aside from my example wherein a test is done on a modified stat (by psychic power)?

Get him to tell you where it states "Unmodified", then he would have an argument

If you show someine the rules and they still dont believe you, there isnta lot you can do.

Sure Imperial psycer squad reduces leadership with a power and assasin use LD flamer to wipe up use to be huge in ard boyz games.
