How about something like the following: "First Strike - When your figure is targeted for a normal adjacent attack, before rolling defense dice make an immediate attack." This way your figure utilizing First Strike has the ability to potentially destroy the other figure first, which does capture the intent of First Strike. Alternately, if you wanted to be a little more potent here is another version: "First Strike - When your figure is targeted for a normal adjacent attack, before rolling defense dice make an immediate attack. After rolling defense dice all excess shields count as unblockable hits."

I think I've heard people say there are rules issues with attacking out of turn, so it would never fly anywhere official. For custom stuff, though, I'd use an attack out of turn mechanic, it sounds fun, go with it!

Oh, believe me, the wording requisites will be way more complex than many may first think
