=== {{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
The Warden Executioner is a combat solo with a load of versatility. By itself, it packs 2 initials ranged or melee attacks, with the potential to generate more via Cleave and Quick Work or Chain Attack. It can soften up harder targets, and take a chunk out of a softer unit. When paired with Wardens, the Side Step Leadership ability really allows the Wardens to Cleave deep into infantry, especially as they can Parry forward.
It has a tough standing in most lists, due to its huge price tag. Sometime you will see one or two of them in lists, but rarely any more.

* [[House Ellowuyr Wardens]] - Naturally as they grants them Side Step.
== SoloRules ==
* [[Ravyn1]] - Veil of Mist lets them move through other models and Parry lets them ignore free strikes, so you can send them through the enemy frontline to harass backliners. Snipe also goes quite well on these guys.
{{Category:Solo}}
* They can manipulate the positions of enemy models with their Vortex Blast gun, which is something melee heavies like the [[Manticore]] or the [[Aeternae]] appreciate, as do assassin caster like [[Garryth1]] or [[Thyron1]].
* Speaking of [[Thyron]]; he can give them Killing Spree with his feat, as well as an additional attack die on the axes for more reliable Crit Ampuations, and Relentless Charge, plus Magical Damage and Blessed on all of their weapons with Onslaught and Spellpiercer respectively.
* [[Garryth1]] - Crippling Grast is amazing with models with many attacks, and the Executioner has 6 if Cleave and the Chain Attack go off.
* [[Garryth2]] similarly has Mortality and a feat to give all the models in his control range super-Defensive Strike, which is great on a model with a gun and 2" melee weapons.
* [[Issyria1]] speeds them up with Crusader's Call.


=== Drawbacks & Downsides ===
== Changes and Updates ==
* They are quite expensive and you cannot take them as Requisition Option. They are certainly worth every point of their cost, but it might get awkward trying to fit them all in to one list and still take some other things you want.
===Release Trivia===
* RAT 6 is so-so as an attack stat. If your caster has DEF debuffs, Executioners are going to love him.
* RNG 10" is pretty short, but you can compound this by having them tangle in melee. Quick work means you can still shoot while engaged.
* Quick Work attacks are NOT initial attacks so have to decide if you want to advance and shoot twice to get the Chain Attack (in which case RNG 100" hurts), charge in and shoot twice with Gunfighter (and damage yourself with Vortex Blast, though this lets you dig in the model deeper), or ignore the Chain attack and charge normally, potentially triggering Cleave and Quick Work.
 
=== Tricks & Tips ===
* If you shoot an enemy within 2" of yourself the Vortex will pull you in, too. This can extend your threat range on your other attacks.
* If you are still in melee when you trigger Quick Work, then your free ranged attack can only target someone in melee (as per the Gunfighter rules). However, if you kill everyone in melee range, then the free ranged attack has no targeting restrictions.

Among the initiates of the Wardens, there are those who excel in their training far beyond that of their peers. These individuals are capable of truly incomprehensible feats of martial strength, such as wielding a pair of the Wardens’ signature heavy voulges with the same grace as their brethren muster with a single blade. These individuals are rare and gifted and are quickly perceived by their trainers. These select few undergo a far more extreme regiment of training than the standard Warden, learning to master the art of warfare in ways few can imagine.
