Rules (7)
Psychic Discipline: Divination
A Psyker with this Discipline gains all the listed Powers, weapons and other special rules, as well as the Aetheric Lightning Psychic Weapon .

Divinatory Aegis (Psychic Power)
Diviner’s Dart (Psychic Weapon)
Sniper
If a weapon has the Sniper special rule, or is fired by a model with the Sniper special rule, all Wounds inflicted by its attacks are ‘Precision Shots’. Wounds from Precision Shots are allocated against a model (or models) of the attacking player’s choice in the target unit, as long as it is in range and line of sight of the firer, rather than following the normal rules for Wound allocation. Note that Snap Shots can never be Precision Shots and attacks with the Blast or Template rules may never benefit from the effects of the Sniper special rule.
Guided Fire
Any attacks made using a weapon with this special rule do not require line of sight, but must still be within range.
Psychic Focus
Before making any To Hit rolls with this weapon, the Psyker must make a Psychic check. If the Check is passed, then the Psyker may attack as normal using the profile shown for this weapon. If the Check is failed, then the Psyker suffers Perils of the Warp, and if the model is not removed as a casualty then it may attack as normal but may not use this weapon.
Precision Shots (X)
If a model with this special rule, or attacking with a weapon with this special rule, rolls equal to or higher than the value in brackets when making a To Hit roll as part of a Shooting Attack, that shot is a ‘Precision Shot’. For example, if a model with the Precision Shots (4+) special rule rolls a 4 or higher when making a To Hit roll, then that attack is a Precision Shot.
Wounds from Precision Shots are allocated against a model (or models) of the attacking player’s choice in the target unit, as long as the target model is in range and line of sight of the attacking model, rather than following the normal rules for Wound allocation.
Note that Snap Shots and shots from weapons that scatter, or do not roll To Hit, can never be Precision Shots.
Precision Strikes (X)
If a model with this special rule, or attacking with a weapon with this special rule, rolls equal to or higher than the value in brackets when making a To Hit roll as part of a melee attack, that hit is a ‘Precision Strike’. For example, if a model with the Precision Strikes (4+) special rule rolls a 4 or higher when making a To Hit roll, then that attack is a Precision Strike.
Wounds from Precision Strikes are allocated against a model (or models) of the attacking player’s choice in the target unit, as long as that model is engaged in combat with the attacking model’s unit, rather than following the normal rules for Wound allocation.
Force
Any Psyker with a weapon or ability with this special rule may choose to make a Psychic check before making any attacks with that weapon or resolving the ability. If the Check is successful then the Strength value of any attacks made is doubled. If the Check is failed then Perils of the Warp is resolved targeting the unit containing the model that failed its Check. If the Psyker survives Perils of the Warp then it may attack as normal.

Profiles:

Psychic Power
Divinatory Aegis:

Instead of making a Shooting Attack, a Psyker with this Psychic Power may select a single friendly unit within 12". The target unit gains the Precision Strikes (6+) and Precision Shots (6+) special rules for the duration of the current player turn. When using this power, the controlling player may choose to have the Psyker take a Psychic check. If the Check is passed then the target unit instead gains the Precision Strikes (5+) and Precision Shots (5+) special rules for the duration of the current player turn. If the Check is failed then no additional benefit is gained and the Psyker suffers Perils of the Warp.
