Rules (2)

Deep Strike

Each time this unit makes an **ingress move** (20.04), if every model in this unit has this ability, it can be set up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 8" horizontally from all enemy units, even if that is within your opponent’s deployment zone.

Synapse

If your Army Faction is **TYRANIDS**, while a **TYRANIDS** unit from your army is within 6" of one or more friendly **SYNAPSE** models, that **TYRANIDS** unit is said to be within Synapse Range of that model and of your army. While a **TYRANIDS** unit from your army is within Synapse Range of your army:
▪ Each time that unit takes a Battle‑shock test, take that test on 3D6 instead of 2D6.
▪ Each time a model in that unit makes a melee attack, add 1 to the Strength characteristic of that attack.

Abilities
Serpentine Fiend: This model can move through terrain features, but cannot end a move within a wall, a floor, etc. This model can be set up or end a move on any floor level of Ruins, but if that level is not the ground floor, it can only do so if its base does not overhang the floor at that level.
Swallow Whole: Each time an attack with this model’s gaping maw targets an Infantry, Mounted or Beasts unit, each successful unmodified Wound roll is a Critical Wound. Each time an Infantry, Mounted or Beasts model is destroyed as a result of an attack made by this model’s gaping maw, this model regains up to D3+2 lost wounds.
Subterranean Hunter: At the end of the Fight phase, if this unit is not within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units, you can remove it from the battlefield and place it into Strategic Reserves.
