It is not a bug or a feature. For someone who has criticised
people for reading the Lore Sheets instead of the rules, I find your
complaint to be more along the lines of "you are evil because I didn't
think of it first". Learn to read. I am not responsible that the RULES
don't mean what you ASSUMED them to mean.

And as the rules clearly state that all beasts have a % chance of
dying each turn, I guess all those people who have been storing their
Beasts in garrisons so that CONTRARY to the RULES they do not die,
now have to fear that they may lose them afterall.

You see, the reason why garrisons don't have any way to avoid ABs
is quite simple. The designer thought of garrisons as someplace
one had 10 soldiers or peasants. Who would waste ?50? aura blasting
10 soldiers or peasants? No one. He obviously didn't realize that
players [on all sides] would use garrisons to countervene the Beast
dying/undead rotting/ghost warrior dissolving rules. So...you've made
your garrisons targets worthy of consideration.

I have one concern with this, and that I expressed to Rich.

Meanwhile, I find it amusing you are complaining that people are
using the rules to counter your attempt to go around them. And
AMAZING that you would be foolish enough to open yourself up
as a target by "blasting" someone who is using the rules
AS WRITTEN to counter your use of a bug/feature.

BTW...I have no idea who actually did this...I have no Aura Blast
capable nobles yet. So there is ANOTHER assumption that you made,
and were WRONG about.

Are you Oleg's illegitimate oftspring we keep hearing rumors about?
You know, the real reason for the PLATO/LOTC war...Oleg's dalliance
with Lady E.? ;^)
