Increase the range of a model with this Relic's aura abilities by 3"

This relic rule has me stumped. Increases range of a model?

Models do not have a range attribute.
Models have abilities like aura's, psychic, and orders and these have ranges.
Models movement has ranges
Weapons or equipment a model is equipped with have ranges.

So what is increased by 3"? All of them? Only 1? Since a model does not have a range attribute this could be considered an "all or nothing" rule since there is not an argument to apply it to a particular range.

You've stopped reading in the middle of the rule. It says that the model with this relic increases it's aura abilities by 3".

That is what I thought when I glanced at the rule. It says " with this relic's aura abilities by 3". This would be the the relic increases the models range (does not exist) with the relic's own aura ability. It would need to be written as "this model's auras" to apply to the model abilities.

It's an older format, certainly, but it checks out.

Increase the range of [a model with this Relic]'s aura abilities by 3"

No. The benefit applies to "a model with this relic", so it increases the range of "a model with this Relic's" aura abilities by 3".

It's a bad way of saying:

'If a model is equipped with this Relic, increase the range of that model's aura abilities by 3"

The sentence structure is correct, but it's not great for comprehension.
