I´ve been running over my Army list recently, going over some general ideas of what i want to have. I fully intend to have a Battle Company of Mantis Warriors, and as such have created a limitless list, with everything i want in it, rather than the tactical choices. Every unit has a role, be it anti-infantry, anti-tank, or anti-Marine (it´s made for the Badab War, and such built to target marines, lots of plasma and power weapons). The one thing that has me perplexed however, is the Command Squad. It´ll have the Standard, Apothecary, and Champion, but i don´t know how to equip the veterans. Their role wont be with the Captain, but with Ahzra Redth, the Mantis Warrior special character who is more of a support character, than a front line beast.
As such, i want my Command Squad to act in a similar way, to support the other units as they go about their jobs, rather than leading from the front (my Captain will be doing that with his Assault Squad). This has left me wondering how best to do that, and so in the quest for knowledge, i ask you, how do you use your Command Squad?
