Blades of Khorne – Mighty Lord of Khorne
5" 7 3+ 2 The Lords of Khorne are the Blood God’s chosen champions, his butcher-monarchs and paragons of slaughter. It is they who drive the warhordes of the Bloodbound to battle, both through a warlike charisma and devotion to their deity’s furious creed. Each has earned their position through acts of carnage; they have levelled cities, eviscerated their rivals and piled skulls to the sky in reverence. A Lord of Khorne can inevitably be found in the thickest of melees, cleaving and hewing through the foe with wanton abandon. Their red-handed example stokes the fury of their followers to new heights, for where a Lord of Khorne fights, the Blood God’s eye is never far away.
Many are the gifts that Khorne’s champions may receive for carrying out worthy massacres in his name. Their scarred bodies bulge with muscle, onto which is fused armour that hungrily drinks the sprayed blood of the slain. In claw-like hands, they carry axes forged in the fires of Khorne’s own infernal citadel. Should they truly excel, they may find a Flesh Hound coming to slink at their side – daemons that are a mark of the Blood God’s favour and hunger to devour wizards alive. | ||

15.3 Pile-in Moves
Some abilities, such as FIGHT abilities, allow a unit to make a short move called a pile-in move to get into a better position for combat. To do so:If your unit is in combat: Pick an enemy unit your unit is in combat with to be the target of the pile-in move. Each model in your unit can move up to 3". That move can pass through the combat ranges of any enemy units, but each model must end that move no further from the target unit. At the end of the move, your unit must still be in combat with all units that it was in combat with at the start of the move.
If your unit is not in combat: Each model in your unit can move 3" in any direction. That move can pass through and end within the combat ranges of any enemy units.

19.0 Strike-first and Strike-last
If there are any STRIKE-FIRST units in combat at the start of the phase, other units cannot be picked to use a FIGHT ability until those units have been picked to use a FIGHT ability. After all those STRIKE-FIRST units have fought, the active player picks the next unit to fight.If there are any STRIKE-LAST units in combat, they cannot be picked to use a FIGHT ability if there are any units in combat that do not have STRIKE-LAST and have not yet used a FIGHT ability.
If a unit has STRIKE-FIRST and STRIKE-LAST, treat it as if it had neither.
| There may be situations when a unit that has STRIKE-FIRST is not in combat at the start of the phase, but because of moves such as pile-in moves, it is ‘pulled into combat’ later in the phase. In such cases, STRIKE-FIRST has no effect on that unit because it was not in combat at the start of the phase. Abilities that allow a unit to use a FIGHT ability immediately after another unit do not override the STRIKE-FIRST or STRIKE-LAST constraints, so you could not pick a unit with STRIKE-LAST to fight immediately after a unit with STRIKE-FIRST. | ||
