Always Strikes First
Some warriors are fast beyond belief and can strike with supernatural speed. Whether this ability is innate or the result of enchantment matters little to the foe, who is often slain before they have a chance to acknowledge the attack.
Models with this special rule always strike first in melee combat, regardless of Initiative. If a model with this rule is fighting an enemy with the same ability, the model with the higher Initiative will strike first. If a model has both this rule and Always Strikes Last, the two cancel out and neither applies so use the model's Initiative.
In addition, if the model's Initiative is higher than their enemy's when it is their turn to attack, they can re-roll failed To-Hit rolls when striking in melee combat – they move so fast that they can land their blows with incredible precision.
