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.

Shadow in the Warp

If your Army Faction is **TYRANIDS**, once per battle, in either player’s Command phase, if one or more units from your army with this ability are on the battlefield, you can unleash the Shadow in the Warp. When you do, each enemy unit on the battlefield must take a Battle‑shock test. Each time an enemy unit takes such a Battle‑shock test, if it is within 6" of one or more **SYNAPSE** units from your army, subtract 1 from that test.

Sustained Hits

This ability always takes the form **[SUSTAINED HITS X]**. Each time an attack made with a **[SUSTAINED HITS]** weapon results in a **critical hit**, that attack results in a number of additional hits on the target as denoted by **X**.
***Example:** An attack made with a **[SUSTAINED HITS 2]** weapon results in a **critical hit**. That attack therefore hits the target three times (once from the **critical hit**, and twice more from the **[SUSTAINED HITS 2]** ability).*

Leader

Before the battle, in the Muster Armies step, for each leader and support unit in your army, you can select one friendly bodyguard unit that unit can lead. That unit will then lead that bodyguard unit for the battle and form an attached unit with it. Unless otherwise stated, each bodyguard unit can only have one leader unit and one support unit attached to it.
