Daemon Hunters should be good at their job, and it's not like there
all that many after-death effects that would be affected.

Regeneration isn't necessarily a chaos ability, many Tyranid
creatures regenerate, after all... Daemon Hunters are more versed in
psychic combat versus daemons (hence preventing most of their
abilities), preventing the use of chaos cards and such. Troll's
regeneration is a more physical matter, IMO...
