Command Protocols
If every unit from your army (excluding DYNASTIC AGENT, C'TAN SHARD and UNALIGNED units) is from the same dynasty, and you select a NECRONS CHARACTER model to be your WARLORD, this unit is eligible to benefit from this ability and the following rules apply.  

After both sides have deployed, but before you have determined who will have the first turn, you must assign a different one of the command protocols to each of the first five battle rounds, and note this down secretly on your army roster.

At the start of each battle round, if any NECRONS CHARACTER units from your army are on the battlefield, the command protocol that you assigned to that battle round becomes active for your army until the end of that battle round. Each command protocol is made up of two directives. When a command protocol becomes active for your army, reveal it to your opponent and select one of its directives.  Until the assigned command protocol stops being active, while a unit that is eligible to benefit from this ability is on the battlefield, that unit benefits from the selected directive.

In addition, if all units from your army are from the same dynasty (excluding DYNASTIC AGENT, C'TAN SHARD and UNALIGNED units), select one command protocol that has not been assigned to a battle round (there will typically only be one). That command protocol is active in every battle round in addition to the one assigned to that battle round – select which directive your units will benefit from at the start of each battle round. Note that if this additional command protocol is the one described in your dynasty’s code, this means both of its directives apply to all units with this ability in your army in every battle round, in addition to the protocol assigned to that battle round.

Abilities
Convergence of Dominion

When this unit is first set up on the battlefield, its models do not have to be set up in unit coherency. Instead, each model must be set up wholly within 12" of one other model from its unit. From that point on, each model in this unit is treated as a separate unit.

Dominion Protocols (Aura)

While a friendly CORE unit is within 6" of this model, add 2 to the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit.

Dynastic Command Node

While a command protocol is active for your army, friendly units with the Command Protocols ability that are within 6" of this model benefit from the selected directive(s) of the active command protocol.

Translocation Protocols

While there are any STARSTELE units from your army on the battlefield, CRYPTEK units in your army can attempt the following action: 'Activate Translocation Protocols (Action): At the end of your Movement phase, one friendly CRYPTEK unit from your army that is within 3" of any friendly STARSTELE units can start to perform this action. The action is completed at the end of your turn. Once completed, select one of those STARSTELE units and remove it from the battlefield; in the Reinforcements step of your next Movement phase, set that STARSTELE unit back up on the battlefield, anywhere that is more than 9" away from any enemy models. If the battle ends and that Starstele unit is not on the battlefield, it is destroyed.'
