Always be scared of a space marine attack no matter how much HP your units have.

Decent but not amazing-- the threat of this card is somewhat more powerful than the card itself, since 2 can actually be quite an expensive price to pay to finish off a unit. On the other hand, it has a shield icon, and comboing this with the Tallassarian Tempest Blade means that you can kill any unit in the game with one attack from your Warlord. This card also makes your opponent worry about shielding attacks from even lowly units like the 10th Company Scout.

I was wondering if the the death ability was triggered by AoE too? If it is the case, it makes it very powerful!

It doesn't, as "by an attack" means damage dealt by applying ATK strength when resolving a unit's attack, whereas Area Effect is damage dealt by a card effect (not by an attack).

Fantastic signature Event card for the Space Marines. 4/5 because it's almost straight up removal plus a shield.

Everytime I go to play this card it goes something like this

Space Marine unit X attacks and does 1 damage to Y

Opponent looks at cards for a few seconds then says "ok Guess Y takes a damage"

I say "You sure?"
"Yeah"

"Then I pay 2 resources..."

They then say "oh wait I want to shield...you have to give me time to play shields!"

Every damn time.

try playing more strictly wit the rules and timing to avoid that issue. meaning assign the damage - you opponent has the opportunity to shield - if they pass and the unit takes damage, then you play fury. being too lax in this seems to be screwing you over. as a fellow SM player, I say not cool!
