This ability always takes the form **Deadly Demise X**. Each time a model in this unit is **destroyed**, after the units embarked within it (if any) have made their **emergency disembark moves**, roll one D6. On a 6, that model suffers a **deadly demise**; each unit within 6" of that model suffers a number of **mortal wounds** denoted by **X** (if this is a random number, roll separately for each unit within 6"). 
***Example:** An Impulsor with a unit of Intercessors embarked within it is **destroyed** by ranged attacks. First, any unresolved attacks made by the attacking unit are resolved. Then the Intercessors make an **emergency disembark move**. Then the roll is made for the **Deadly Demise** ability, and on a 6, that ability is resolved. Finally, the Impulsor is removed from the battlefield.*

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.

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.
