Captains- Tools and support

[Epsolonofthe5th]

So how are Salamnder Captains being tooled up?

Fluff wise it is all about the aggressive TH/SS combo, is this being used and how is this potential monster of combat being supported?

 

I know that BA have Cpt Smashypants often with Librarian and SG as buff and shield (and in fairness to both those units true combat partners).

What is the optimal hammer to our gun line anvil?

 

Is the mantle an auto inc?

In larger games, is Bray'Arth best option as warlord?

 

Thoughts and builds from the flames?

If Bray’Arth is your Warlord that game is to small to play him.

 

To clarify his special rule only allows him to be you Warlord if he is the only HQ, possibly Character, I forget which. At about 400ish pts you are giving up a lot of CPs just to field him, even if he is incredibly tough.
