Veterans Of The Long War

Detachment Rule: Focus of Hatred

The eldest of the Chaos Space Marines harbour within their corrupted souls a burning desire for vengeance upon the Imperium and the galaxy as a whole. They channel this ire against their chosen targets, relentlessly pursuing their victims until every last foe lies dead upon the battlefield. At the start of your Command phase , select one unit from your opponents army to be your focus of hatred. Until the start of your next Command phase, each time a HERETIC ASTARTES model from your army (excluding DAMNED models) makes an attack that targets your focus of hatred, you can re-roll the Hit roll .
