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.
