Should Chaos Marines Fight Last or Fight First? – FTN
This week we take the opportunity to look at the Fights Last vs Fight First mechanic in the game and how it affects Chaos Marines.
Hey folks,
With the release of the Chaos Space Marine codex there are a bunch of ways to pull off a Fights Last effect on charging opponents. It will definitely let the Chaos players control the momentum of combat. This isn’t just about Chaos so there should be something here for all generals.
We sort of center the conversation around Chaos Space Marines in this episode but the concepts aren’t limited to them. There are a lot of ways to get Fights Last in the game but right now it looks like Drukhari and Chaos Space Marines do it best. You do not want to go into them unprepared.
Even armies like Necrons and the Silent King have the ability to pull off a cheeky Fights Last. Players need to ask themselves, how do they deal with it. It’s not all doom and gloom, it’s a great mechanic. Players should be using this as the Fight Phase is extremely deadly and sometimes a difficult situation to navigate. Why not give yourself a leg up by taking the wind out of the sails of the charging units?
