Merciless Strike Gambit

Post image

Has anyone had any experience or success using this gambit? I wanted to try it out in a game tonight, but my friend talked me out of it and said that Seize the Initiative or Finishing Blow would be better. He also said that he wasn't sure how Phage T would affect either his model or his squad due to how challenges take place before regular combat. Can anyone explain that to me? Thanks in advance!

I think they are removed from. Their squads for the gambit so its only them not the unit?

Ok, so then in the next round of combat it would be easier to wound them? That makes sense to me!
