      Abilities: Adaptive (Leviathan), Hive Fleet Adaptations, Hyper-adaptation (Leviathan), Hyper-adaptations, Synaptic Control

      
      

      Abilities	Description
      Adaptive (Leviathan)	Each time a unit with this adaptation is selected to shoot or fight, you can re-roll one hit roll when resolving that unit's attacks.
      Hive Fleet Adaptations	If every unit from your army (excluding HIVE TENDRIL LIVING ARTILLERY and UNALIGNED units) is from the same hive fleet, all HIVE TENDRIL units with this ability, and all models within them, gain a Hive Fleet Adaptation. The Hive Fleet Adaptation gained is dependant upon which hive fleet they are from. If your hive fleet does not have an associated Hive Fleet Adaptation, you must instead create a new Hive Fleet Adaptation for them, as described on pages 60-61. This allows you to customise the rules for your hive fleet to best represent their fighting style. In either case, write down all of your Detachments' Hive Fleet Adaptations on your army roster.
      Hyper-adaptation (Leviathan)	You can swap this hive fleet's Adaptive rule for one of the Feed Biomorphologies or Hunt Biomorphologies on page 61.
      Hyper-adaptations	Each Hive Fleet Adaptation also has an Adaptive element to it, which can be swapped out for another rule at the start of the battle, after determining who has the first turn. There are multiple alternative rules that this Adaptive element can be swapped out for, and each hive fleet's Hyper-adaptations rule will specify which ones are available to you.
      Synaptic Control	• Each time an attack is made against a SYNAPSE unit with this adaptation, an unmodified wound roll of 1-3 always fails, irrespective of any abilities that the weapon or the attacker may have. • Each time an attack is made against a unit with this adaptation (excluding SYNAPSE units), if that unit is within Synaptic Link range of any friendly LEVIATHAN SYNAPSE units, an unmodified wound roll of 1-2 always fails, irrespective of any abilities that the weapon or the attacker may have.
