Hey, so I was wondering if Da Lucky Stikk's +1 to hit aura applies to the character with the model as well. I assume so, but I'm not sure, so I thought I'd try to clear it up.

This would be pretty neat to counteract the -1 to hit that's on Power Klaws and Killsaws nowadays, so we could keep hitting on a (re-rollable) 2+. Still won't save you from , but nothing does.

The FaQ clarifies that models with aura's benefit from their own aura.

Neat-o, cheers!

It's actually explicitly addressed in the Aura rules. I don't think it's ever been covered by a FAQ.

"Aura Abilities

Some units – usually Characters – have abilities that affect certain models within a given range. Unless the ability in question says otherwise, a model with a rule like this is always within range of the effect.

For example, a Lord of Contagion has the Nurgle’s Gift ability, which affects all Death Guard models within 7" of him. As the Lord of Contagion is also a Death Guard model, he benefits from this ability as well."
