The new "Chapter Master" ability is a sidegrade to the old one. On the one hand, it's no longer an Aura, so it can only ever affect a single unit. No more babysitting a castle of tanks or dreadnoughts. On the other hand, the unit being buffed doesn't need to REMAIN within 6" of the Chapter Master, as it is no longer an Aura. Also, the various "Turn off your Aura lol" abilities won't affect this ability. Remember that a CHAPTER MASTER will still keep their "Rites of Battle [Aura]" ability, as they "gain" the Chapter Master ability and not replace Rites of Battle.
