'''Biomorphs:'''

'''Special Rules:'''
*'''Burrowers'''
*'''Cortex Command:''' When attacking, a cortex leech swarm base may choose to forego its normal attacks to instead make a Cortex Command check. This is a single attack that if it hits, both players must roll an opposed leadership check with both players rolling a d6 and adding it to their respective models' leadership values.  If the Cortex Leech's player succeeds, that model must make either a shooting or a melee attack against a target chosen by the Cortex Leech's player at its full value (I.E a model so controlled that assaults another unit must do so as if it had charged them). If an enemy unit in assault is wiped out by the cortex leech's unit, roll a d6; on a 3 or less nothing happens, but on a four or more the entire unit must charge or shoot a target of the Cortex Leech player's choosing, though after the turn the models are removed from play.

'''Psyker:''' A Zoanthrope Brood can attempt to manifest one psychic power in each friendly Psychic phase, and attempt to deny one psychic power in each enemy Psychic phase. It knows the ''Smite'', ''Warp Blast'' and one power from the Hive Mind's Wrath discipline. If it is upgraded to know one more power, it must generate one additional power from any of the Hivemind's disciplines. 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 two psychic power in each enemy Psychic phase. A Zoanthrope unit of 7 or more models can instead attempt to manifest three psychic powers in each friendly Psychic phase, and attempt to deny three 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.
