Banshee Masks
Models wearing a Banshee Mask always strikes first in hand-to-hand combat in the first round of any assault, regardless of Initiative or other factors. This applies even if they are not in base contact with the enemy. The mask has no effect in additional rounds of combat. In the case of other effects that would allow their enemy to also strike first, both units strike simultaneously.
