Hatred grants a unit re-rolls to hit in the first round of combat. Presumably that applies to that unit's first round of combat, not the first round of "a combat".
To clarify, an example from my recent dwarf vs skaven game: the Ironbreakers and Clanrats were already engaged and had fought a round of combat. I then flank charged the Clanrats with my Longbeards. As far as the Longbeards are concerned, this is their first round in this combat - so I re-rolled misses - is that correct? Later when the Longbeards themselves got flanked by Stormvermin, I didn't get Hatred re-rolls because this wasn't the Longbeards' first round in the ongoing combat.

Q: If a model gets a Strength bonus ‘in the first round of combat’ does this mean it only receives the bonus once per battle? And does it receive the bonus against a new enemy that charges it while it is already fighting in an ongoing combat? (p90)
A: No to both questions.
