Aura and Unarmed Strike

Hmm... this may be one of those odd corner cases, but Aura and Unarmed damage should stack. Technically speaking, this should impact PL caps as well... so if you have a character with a +6 strength bonus and a +6 Aura, they should be capped at a +8 unarmed bonus if they're PL 10. Is this a possible thing to implement? I'm not certain where to find unarmed damage to make Aura add to it.
 
Are you sure? Wouldn't it be 2 separate attacks, so not subject to stacking? If I have a flaming aura of +5 damage, isn't that separate from my punching someone in the face?
 
According to Page 99 of Ultimate Power:
If you make an unarmed attack while your Aura is active, a Damage Aura stacks with your melee damage, while targets save against other Aura effects separately.

If someone punches or grapples you, they suffer the +5 damage only, but if you have a strength bonus of +6 and an aura of +5, the total damage is +11.
 
Ah, I see. I'll add this to the to-do list, but it's a little tricky to do so I may not get to it for a bit. Thanks for finding the page reference!
