</tab>
<tab name="Hive Commander">
In each of your Shooting phases, you can pick one friendly {{W40kKeyword|<Hive Fleet>}} unit within 6" of the Swarmlord. That unit can move (and Advance, if you wish) as if it were the Movement phase instead of shooting.

<tab name="Suppress Instincts">
At the beginning of your turn pick a friendly {{W40kKeyword|<Hive Fleet>}} {{W40kKeyword|Tyranids}} unit that would suffer from the ''Instinctive Behaviour'' special rule; that unit ignores the effect of the rule until the beginning of your next turn.

</tab>
<tab name="The Swarmlord's Will">
