Ive thought about this a lot actually. As shadows in the warp was always kind of this iconic problem that is supposed to exist if you face the tyranids and now its pretty much a non factor most of the time.

The -LD is appropriate as psykers fluff wise are supposed to have their connection to the warp hampered. Under 6th this reflected that, however now SiTW has no effect on psykers ability to manifest powers, but may affect their perils test if they have one.

The way it is now it almost seems more Daemonic as your more likely to cause a psyker to suffer perils than be able to access the warp.

Thoughts I had to change it-

Psykers within 12" generate 1 less WC than normal to a minimum of 1.

or

Psykers within 12" require an additional success to manifest a psychic power, ie a WC 1 power requires 2 succeess, WC 2 requires 3 successes, WC3 requires 4 succcesses

I think both of these ideas reflect cutting off the access to the warp to psykers, with the second one also including a greater chance to perils as you will have to commit more dice to try and get a power off.

I'd like to see it perform a -1 modifier to Ld for all models that aren't fearless (representing the dread it instills in all who feel it), with psykers instead suffering -3 due to their acute sensations of that.
