Tyranids Rules

Chitinous Body
A Carnifex throws its Armour Save on 2D6 rather than on one, and a 2D6 roll of 3+ turns the damage aside. A Save Modifier counts against that throw as against any other, so a powerful weapon cuts the throw down sharply. Terminator Armour is thrown the same way.
Carried by Carnifex.
Crush Attack
A Carnifex makes four attacks at Strength 7 in Hand-to-Hand Combat. It may instead make one attack alone, which strikes at Strength 10.
Carried by Carnifex.
Fear
See Fear in Psychology.
Carried by Genestealer Brood, Tyranid Warrior Brood.
Hive Mind
Every other Tyranid unit in range of the model passes any Leadership Test without a roll. Nothing Breaks such a unit, and no Psychology rule reaches it.
A unit already Broken and in range Rallies without a roll in the rally phase.
