'''Biomorphs:'''
*Two pairs of Scything talons
*Prehensile pincer (Red Terror only)

'''Special Rules:'''
*'''Deep Strike'''
*'''Instinctive Behaviour (Feed)'''
*'''Very Bulky''' 
*'''Synapse''' Ravener Alpha and Red Terror Only
*'''Precise Tunneling:''' If, when a Ravener Brood deploys via Deep Strike, it scatters on top of impassable terrain or another model (friend or foe), reduce the scatter distance by the minimum required to avoid the obstacle. This does not apply to buildings with transport capacity, despite them usually count as Impassible terrain - Ravener Brood may deliberately Deep Strike on top of the building, and if at least one model in the brood end it's scatter over the building, count them as occupying this building's lowest floor. If that floor is already occupied by the enemy unit, both units become immediately locked in close combat. This does not count as Charge, so no one get bonus attacks for charging, Rage and Counter-Charge special rules.
*'''Know No Honor''' (Ravener Alpha and Red Terror only)
*'''Swallow Whole:''' (Red Terror only) If the Red Terror hits with at least four of its close combat attacks in a single phase (excluding its prehensile pincer attack), you may nominate a single enemy Infantry, Jump Infantry or Jet Pack Infantry model in base contact with the Red Terror and attempt to swallow it whole.
:If you choose to do so, no To Wound rolls are made for any of the Red Terror's Attacks (excluding its prehensile pincer attack). Instead, the nominated model must pass a single invulnerable save (if it has one) or be removed from play as a casualty. There is no need to decide beforehand if you will attempt to swallow a model whole; declare after rolling To Hit. Enemy models with either the Very Bulky or Extremely Bulky special rule cannot be nominated as targets to be Swallowed Whole. If no models in the target unit can be nominated, the Red Terror cannot choose to Swallow Whole and must roll To Wound normally.
*'''Burrow''': An unengaged Ravener unit can, at any point during its Movement phases from the second game turn onwards, elect to burrow. If it does so, remove it from the table and place it into Ongoing Reserves. The unit cannot Deep Strike and Burrow in the same turn.
*''' "They're all around us!" '''': If a Ravener Brood includes The Red Terror, it can Deep Strike onto an enemy unit. After rolling for scatter as normal, (if the Raveners scattered onto the unit, then follow this rule as well) if just one of the unit is still within 1" of the target unit, then place the Raveners all around the target unit. All subsequent attacks have the instant death special rule, and the target unit cannot Move, Run, Charge or Fall Back. In addition, the Raveners all gain Stealth and Shrouded for the next two turns.
