Saw this and I thought how huge it is to be able to shut down auras. Definitely might make some armies nervous. Does any other army currently have the ability to shut down auras?

DG and CSM.

Dakka Flow Chart:

Is the rule new? No: probably gripe about it. Yes: see next question.

Is the rule for space marines? No: complain about it being OP/UP (roll d6 1-3 UP/ 4-6OP) Yes: Freak Out.

Night Lords have been able to do it since the release of Faith and Fury over a year ago. Only it's a strategem instead of a psychic power, shuts down ALL of the target's aura abilities instead of just one, and can be used if ANY Night Lords unit is within 18 instead of just psykers. So DA "stole" one of our best tricks, but the Eighth Legion still does it better.

AdMech have a strat as well, from Engine War - "Electro-Filament Countermeasures".

Yeah - I was going to add the admech one as well. I think that's going to become a common rule as we get deeper into 9th.
