Synapse
<Hive Fleet> units automatically pass Morale tests if they are within 12' of any friendly <Hive Fleet> units with this ability.
Shadow in the Warp
Enemy PSYKERS must subtract 1 from any Psychic tests they make if they are within 18' of any units with this ability. TYRANID PSKYERS are not affected.
Instinctive Behaviour
Unless a <Hive Fleet> unit with this ability is within 24' of any friendly <Hive Fleet> Synapse unit, you must subtract 1 from any hit rolls made for it when shooting any target other than the nearest visible enemy unit, and you must subtract 2 its charge roll against any unit other than the nearest enemy unit.
Hive Fleet Adaptations (apply to all units)
Behemoth: You can re-roll failed charge rolls for units with this adaptation
Kraken: When a unit with this adaptation Advances, roll three dice instead of one and pick the highest to add to the Move characteristic of all models in the unit for that Movement phase. In addition, such units can Fall Back and charge in the same turn.
Gorgon: You can re-roll wound rolls of 1 in the Fight phase for units with this adaptation.
Jormungandr: A unit with this adaptation (other than units that can fly) always has the benefit of cover for the purpose of shooting attacks. If the unit advances or charges, however, it loses the benefits of this adaptation until the start of your movement phase.
Hydra: You can re-roll hit rolls in the Fight phase for units with this adaptation that target units containing fewer models than their own.
Kronos: You can re-roll hit rolls of 1 for units with this adaptation in your Shooting phase if they did not move in the preceding Movement phase.
Leviathan: Roll a D6 each time a unit with the adaptation loses a wound whilst it is within 6' of a friendly Synapse unit from the same hive fleet. On a 6, the damage is ignored and the unit does not lose a wound. Ignore this adaptation on a unit that is currently affected by the Catalyst psychic power.
Psychic Powers
Catalyst, Onslaught, The Horror are unchanged.
Psychic Scream:
WC5
Targets nearest enemy within 18' and does D3 mortal wounds. If the target is a psyker, also roll 2d6. If the value is higher than the enemy psyker's leadership, the enemy psyker loses 1 spell at random.
Paroxysm:
WC5
Target enemy unit within 12' of the psyker fights last.
Dominion:
Target unit within 36' of the psyker essentially gains synapse.
Warlord Traits
Before battle begins, you can remove your warlord and set them up again.
Never suffer any hit roll penalties. Overwatch still on 6s.
Add 6' synapse
When the warlord kills a character in fight, you may select a friendly hive unit within 3', that unit gets an additional move phase.
Before battle begins, choose an opponent's unit. Your warlord can reroll all failed hit rolls against all units with the same dataslate. (eg. All obliterator squads)
After the end of any phase where your warlord takes a wound, for the remainder of the battle reduce all damage done to your warlord by 1 (to a minimum of 1)

Leviathan: Once per battle round you can reroll a single hit/wound/damage/advance/charge or saving throw for your warlord.

Stratagems
1CP The Enemy Below (Jormungandr): Use this Stratagem during deployment when setting up a Jormungandr Infantry unit. Instead of deploying normal set this unit up underground. When you set up a unit of tunnelers (Raveners, Trygon, Trygon Prime, or Mawloc) any number of units that have been set up underground may deploy with them. Place that unit within 3” of the tunneler and more than 9” away from any enemy units.
1CP Brute Force (Behemoth): Use when a Benemoth unit completes a charge. Roll a D6 for each Behemoth charging model within 1' of enemy units. For each roll of 6, deal 1 mortal wound to the enemy unit. Do the same on a 2+ if the charging unit is a monstrous creature.
1CP War On All Fronts (Leviathan): During the fight phase, select an enemy unit within 1' of 1 flying and 1 nonflying Leviathan unit. You may reroll hit & wound rolls of 1 for Leviathan attacks against the enemy unit.
1CP Against Shadow (Kronos): When an enemy psyker attempts to cast a spell within 24' of a Kronos unit, that psyker can only use 1 dice for his psychic test.
1CP Hypertoxicity (Gorgon): During the fight phase, choose Gorgon unit with toxin sac, that unit does 1 additional damage on wounds roll of 5+ instead of 6+.
2CP Endless Swarm: Select a destroyed unit of Termagants, Hormagaunts, Gargoyls or any Hydra infantry unit that has been completely destroyed. Add an identical unit to your army and set it up as reinforcement wholly within 6' of any board edge, and more than 9' from enemy units.
1CP Opportunistic Advance: Use in your Movement Phase. Choose a Kraken unit that does not have the Fly keyword. When Advancing you can double number you roll when determining how much to add to the unit's Movement characteristic.
3CP Call the Brood: At the end of your movement phase, add a new unit of up to 5 Genestealers, wholly within 6 of a Broodlord or infestation node but more than 9' from enemy units.
3CP Adrenaline Surge: At the end of fight phase, select a Tyranid unit from your army; that unit can immediately fight again.
2CP Digestive Denial: After deployment but before the first turn begins, choose a piece of terrain other than fortification. Units fully within or on this piece of terrain do not gain any bonus to their saving throws for being in cover.
2CP Single Minded Annihilation: At the end of your shooting phase, choose an infantry unit; that unit shoots again.
1CP Grisly Feast: During morale phase, select Ripper Swarm or Harauspex unit. Enemy units within 6 ' must add 1 to their morale tests.
2CP Pathogenic Slime: During your shooting, select a Monstrous Creature. Increase the damage of its attacks by for 1 for this phase.
3CP Sporefield: After both armies deploy, add up 2 units of spore mines as reinforcements more than 12' from enemy units.
1CP Invisible Hunter: During your movement phase, select a Lictor within 1' of an enemy unit. That model can fall back, shoot and charge.
1CP Power of the Hive Mind: At the end of your psychic phase, choose a Tyranid psyker that manifested a power, that unit can cast 1 additional power.
1CP Pheromone Trail: Use this stratagem when a Tyranid Infantry unit from your army is set up on the battlefield as reinforcements if there is already a Lictor from your army on the battlefield. You can set up the unit wholly within 6” of the Lictor and more than 9” from any enemy models, rather than following the normal rules for setting up the unit.
2CP Death Frenzy: Use when a Tyranid character dies: it can shoot again as if it were shooting phase, or fight again as if fight phase before its removal.
1CP Overrun: When a Tyranid unit destroys an enemy unit in the fight phase, and it is not within 3' of another enemy unit, that unit can forgo consolidation but move and advance as if movement phase (but cannot move within 1' of enemy models.)
1CP Voracious Appetite: During the fight phase, a Tyranid Monstrous Creature or character can reroll all failed wounds until the end of the fight phase.
3CP Psychic Barrage: During your psychic phase, select 3 broods of Zoanthropes that contain at least 3 models each and have not yet manifested a psychic power this turn. Instead of manifesting powers normally, select a point within 24' and line-of-sight of all 3 units: roll a dice for all enemy units within 3 inch of that point, on a 4+ that unit suffers 3d3 mortal wounds. Add 1 to that roll for characters and minus 1 from that roll for units that have 10 models or more.
1CP Caustic Blood: At the start of fight phase, select a Tyranid unit and roll D6 when a model in that unit dies. On 6, an enemy unit withing 1' suffers a mortal wound.
2CP Rapid Regen: At the end of the movement phase select a Tyranid Monstrous Creature, roll a D3 and heal that many wounds from the model.

1CP Feeder Rendrils: When a Genestealer, Lictor, Toxicrene or Venomthrope unit kills a character in the fight phase, gain D3 CP.
1CP Implant Attack: Use aft Tyranid unit fights in the fight phase. Roll D6 for each wounded enemy model that was not slain. On a 2+, that model suffers a mortal wound.
1/3CP Bounty of the Hive Fleet: Before the beginning of the game, you may equip 1/2 additional relics to model(s) in your army.
1CP Metabolic Movement: Use in your movement phase after a Tyranid unit has moved. You may move that unit again including advancing, however you must roll a D6 for each model in that unit and on a 6 that unit suffers a mortal wound. That unit cannot shoot or charge this turn.
