::'''Parry:''' The Swarmlord, while equipped with two sets of Bone Sabres, has a 4+ invulnerable save during Fight subphase of the Assault Phase. If for some reason he loses one of these sets, this invulnerable save is reduced to 5+.
::'''Blade Fury:''' The Swarmlord, equipped with two sets of Bone Sabres may forgo all of his attacks in close combat to deal an automatic hit to each enemy model in a base contact with it. If for some reason he loses one of these sets, it still may deal hits to all models in a base contact with it, but must roll to hit for each instead of hitting automatically.
::'''Shieldbreaker:''' Successful invulnerable save against wounds caused by two sets of Bone Sabres must be re-rolled. If for some reason the Swarmlord loses one of these sets, only invulnerable saves with the result of 6 must be re-rolled.

'''Special Rules:'''
*'''Eternal Warrior'''
*'''Psyker (Mastery Level 3)'''
*'''Know No Honor'''
*'''Shadow in the Warp'''
*'''Synapse Creature'''
*'''Aeons of Experience:''' The Swarmlord may generate two warlord traits with the option to reroll and choose from the preferred result, from one or different warlord trait charts. Alternatively may choose to generate trophy hunter and synaptic lynch-pin warlord traits.  If your list is battleforged, generate an additional warlord trait.  
*'''Alien Cunning:''' Whilst the Swarmlord is alive, you must add 1 to your Reserve Rolls. 
*'''Psychic Monstrosity:''' The Swarmlord's synapse range and shadow in the warp range are increased by 6".
*'''Swarm Leader:''' At the beginning of your turn, choose either the Swarmlord’s unit, or one friendly unit from Codex: Tyranids within the Swarmlord's synapse range. Then, choose one of the following special rules: Furious Charge, Monster Hunter, Tank Hunter, or Preferred Enemy. The chosen unit has that special rule until the end of the turn.
*'''Suppress Instincts:''' All Codex:Tyranids units within the Swarmlord's synapse range can voluntarily go to ground, despite being Fearless, unless some other rules prevent them from going to ground. Once per game all Codex:Tyranids units within the Swarmlord's synapse range that has gone to ground may move, shoot and charge normally, while they remain within synapse range.
*'''Bullet Screening:''' Any Termagant, Hormagaunt or Gargoyle Brood within the Swarmlord's synapse range may choose to generate a 4+ cover save for friendly Codex:Tyranids units behind it, instead of the usual 5+. If it does so, for each successful cover save roll, generated this way, the unit which generated it suffers a wound with no saves of any kind allowed.
