Okay, Technomany. #4 or 5. - Add +1 armour to a mech. Now, can my 5 libbys that all roll that power, all cast that same power at te same target? Can that target become the target of the same power more than once? Can I give my reaver +5 AV and make it a silly AV 19 MONSTER?

The same blessing cast on the same target doesn't stack unless it specifically says so.

As for whether or not a unit of 5 Independent Character Libbies can each cast the same power... that depends on what house rules you use to fix the psychic phase.

Here's a more detailed discussion on the bit about casting the same power with 2 psykers in the same unit.

And doesn't the conclave specify that only the nominated psycher can cast powers with the bonus to casting, all other psykers can't cast ?

Totally right... shows how often Iron hands use psykers.

Its optional. You can combine there powers and nominate one librarian within 12 inches of others to act as a super caster.

Or you just treat them like individual librarians and they all cast their own spells.

That seems like a much better option. Use the one psyker im not casting with to be the buffer. Then just cast away with the second.

So that brings the Q, cant cast the same twice from the same unit, But can I have a unit benefit from two sources of the same power? IE +1 AV from multiple sources?

Don't be too hard on yourself!

Given with how far-reaching and low on warp-charge requirement these new spells are, a provision to ignore the general rule forbidding stacking of blessings or maledictions would have been only appropriate!
The supplement authors should have considered that it is much more likely for Space Marines - as the universe's foremost psykers - to be able to cast the same power more than once per turn. ;-]
