Darkoath warqueen and "fight first" abilities - Who chooses activation afterwards?

[Mackattk]

Hi everyone, 

Just a quick question. 

The darkoath warqueen has the "This model fights at the start of the combat phase" rule. The question is, if it's my opponents turn, do they get to fight with the warqueen AND then choose another afterwards as their first activation? Or does the warqueen count as the first activation? Could someone point out to me where in the rules it states this whichever way it is. 

Thanks!

Start of the combatphase/combatphase/end of the combatphase are different Pool for activations.

If both players have units that fight at the Start of the combatphase the active player activates anything with that rule than the other player.

If all units with such a rule were activated the normal activations will beginn starting with the active player.

If there are units with end of the combatphase left these are activated the same way as those at the Start of the combatphase.

Thanks for the info! 

So basically, if only one person has only one "first at start of..." ability, they go and if it's their turn, they can then activate a unit as normal?

Yes, if your opponent has for example two warqueens in combat (and you don't have any start of combat phase models) and it is his turn he can basicly activate 3 units before you activate any unit).

Ok, gotcha! Thanks a lot for the explanation!
