Trying to figure out the math on imbued incantation and prism of echos.

IMBUED MANIFESTATION
4 Cabal Points
Like flame leaping along a trail of spilled promethium, the Thousand Sons’ magicks feed upon the latent energies clouding the air and race hungrily away through them towards the foe.

Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when a psychic power is successfully manifested by a unit from your army. Add 6" to the range of that psychic power’s effects (if that psychic power specifies multiple ranges, e.g. Astral Blast, add 6" to the first range specified in that psychic power).

THE PRISM OF ECHOES

This ancient crystal is said to have been recovered from amongst the despoiled ruins of Prospero. It resonates with the psychic death-agonies of all those who fell along with their world on its final day, so that even the gheists of the Rubricae are moved to vengeful fury by its presence.

Each time the bearer successfully manifests a Blessing psychic power, double the first range specified in that power’s effects

Let's say cult of duplicity teleport blessing has a range of 6", do we double that then add 6? Or do we add 6 then double? Based on maths on weapon x2 and + str bonus i am inclined to say that you only get 18 inches here. But given that this is a on cast layering effect can you layer it to add 6 then double?

Best,

That is not the math for weapons you referenced. That is the W40K rules for modifying characteristics. You can argue that range on a Psychic power are not a characteristic, but you won't find many people who will agree that you shouldn't use the same math rules in this case.

I would say its multiplication first, then addition. Normal math rules, just like for characteristics. But this is HIWPI, because the rules dont cover this.

As you're not told otherwise, use the normal rules for maths.
