The charge bonus on the fight phase page implies that the charger fights first but I've also seen some reviews for 10th edition mention that the defenders actually fight first in 10th so I'm a little confused.

The Fight Phase happens in two subphases. First all units with the Fights First rule can fight, and then all other eligible units. In both cases, the player whose turn it ISN'T chooses first, then it alternates. However, the defending player often doesn't have any units with Fights First, which is most commonly gained by charging, so in praxis the attacking player usually can go first.

Yep...there are some rules that give a unit Fights First without charging like the Space Marine Judiciar, but its really rare.

  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
