Aft Weapon
Whenever a Voidweaver shoots, the shuriken cannon mounted on its aft can shoot at a different target to the Voidweaver's other weapons.  The shuriken cannon mounted on the Voidweaver's aft can only target units that are in the Voidweaver's rear armour facing.
Strength from Death
Whenever a unit is completely destroyed within 7" of one or more non-vehicle units that consist only of models with this special rule, pick one of those units to make a Soulburst action.  You cannot pick a unit that is locked in combat, Falling Back, or that has Gone to Ground.  A unit making a Soulburst action can do one of the following, even if it has already done so in this turn:

* The unit can immediately move as if it were your Movement phase.
* The unit can immediately shoot (or Run or Turbo-boost) as if it were your Shooting Phase.
* The unit can immediately make a charge move as if it were your Charge sub-phase (if they do so, enemy units can fire Overwatch as if it were your Charge sub-phase). A unit that makes a charge in the Fight sub-phase does so at the end of the current Initiative step, and once they have charged, the Initiative steps continue to resolve as before (including for models in the charging unit).

A unit can only make a Soulburst action once per turn.
Fear
At the start of each Fight sub-phase, a unit in base contact with one or more enemy models that cause Fear must take a Leadership test (called a Fear test) before any blows are struck. If the test is passed, all is well and there is no effect. If the test is failed, the unit succumbs to fear - all models in the unit have their Weapon Skill reduced to 1 for the remainder of that Fight sub-phase. Note that a model that causes Fear is not itself immune to Fear, and will still need to take a Fear test if it is base contact with any enemy models that cause Fear.
