Smite + 1 Hive Mind

A Zoanthrope unit of 4 or more models can instead attempt to manifest two psychic powers in each friendly Psychic phase, and attempt to deny one psychic power in each enemy Psychic phase. When manifesting or denying a psychic power with a Zoanthrope unit, first select a model in the unit - measure range, visibility, etc. from this model. If this unit suffers Perils of the Warp, it suffers D3 mortal wounds as described in the core rules, but units within 6" will only suffer damage if the Perils of the Warp causes the last model in the Zoanthrope unit to be slain.

Abilities
Warp Blast:

When this unit manifests the Smite psychic power, it affects the closest enemy unit within 24", instead of within 18". In addition, it inflicts an additional D3 mortal wounds on that enemy unit if this unit contains 4 or 5 Zoanthropes, or an additonal 3 mortal wounds if it contains 6 Zoanthropes.

Shadow in the Warp:

Enemy PSKYERS must subtract 1 from any Psychic tests they make if they are within 18" of any units with this ability. TYRANID PSYKERS are not affected.

Synapse:

units automatically pass Morale tests if they are within 12" of any friendly units with this ability.

Warp Field:

Models in this unit have a 3+ invulnerable save.
