Rules Clarification:  : Admonition      (Edit)
(Click Expand to read)

• • Admonition triggers off any advance, not just in-activation stuff. You could even trigger your Admonition off an enemy's Admonition!
  • Standing still but changing facing is an advance.
• What doesn't trigger Admonition
  • Aiming, or forfeiting your movement, is not advancing.
  • If a model doesn't move, doesn't change facing, doesn't aim ... does nothing but skips straight ahead to its Combat Action, this is not an advance. (Infernal Ruling)
  • Being placed (such as Teleport) is not an advance.
  • Involuntary movement (being slammed, thrown, or pushed) is not an advance.
• You don't have to trigger Admonition the first time an enemy moves nearby - you can save it until it best suits you. (Infernal Ruling)
  
  
• Countercharge during your own activation (Countercharge vs Admonition etc) ( Edit )
  • You can trigger Countercharge during your own activation, but only if an enemy model moves during your activation. For instance, you move towards a model who has Admonition and they trigger that to try to move away. (You do a normal move, they trigger admonition and move, you trigger countercharge from their admonition-move.)
  • However countercharge always counts as being out-of-activation, no matter when you trigger it. (Infernal Ruling)

  As a result, you can't trigger only-during-activation effects (such as Critical Shred & Sustained Attack).

  • On the other hand, you can potentially get two charge attacks (one for your normal charge, one for the counter charge). (Infernal Ruling)
    This ruling still applies even after the 2018.07 update (Infernal Re-ruling)

• Countercharge plus Admonition
  • If a model has both CC and Admonition, it can trigger both at the same time. A model moves nearby, it admonitions away, then countercharges back in.

• Countercharge Inception
  • If a model [A] has Countercharge, and it charges an enemy model [B] that has Countercharge and Admonition, then ...
    • Model [A] charges and triggers CC and Admo on [B]
    • Model [B] Admo moves but before it can resolve its own CC, it triggers CC on [A]
    • You now have two models that have triggered CC simultaneously. So the Active player gets to resolve their one first.
• Battlegroup members (Edit)
  • Spells that target/affect "models in the battlegroup" can also target/will also affect the caster, the caster's unit (if they have one), and the caster's Companion (if they have one).
  • It won't target/affect models which are Attached, though.
