Scouts
This ability always takes the form **Scouts X"**. In the Resolve Pre-battle Abilities step, if every model in a unit has this ability, you can do one of the following: 
- If that unit is in **strategic reserves**, you can set up that unit anywhere that is wholly within your deployment zone. 
- If that unit is wholly within your deployment zone, it can make a **scout move** (see below). 
- If that unit is embarked within a **DEDICATED TRANSPORT** that is wholly within your deployment zone, and if every model embarked within that **DEDICATED TRANSPORT** has the Scouts ability, that **DEDICATED TRANSPORT** can make a **scout move**.
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.
