=Thoughts on Elias Gade=
===Elias Gade in a nutshell===
Gade is a potent combat solo. With Advance Deployment, Pathfinder, Prey, Sniper, True Sight, and a pair of magical crossbows, both of which are rocking Weapon Master bayonets, the good Mister Gade is built for one thing: dealing death. Specifically, Gade deals death to his Prey no matter where they might try to hide and with terrifying accuracy. He is Exemplar Interdiction's tool for dealing with ranged stealth solos such as Eiryss.
 
===Combos & Synergies===
He requires little to no support from other Errants or even his warcaster. And is thus an auto include in both Exemplar Interdiction and Creator's Might, because he fill a niche no other model fills in those themes.
* [[Exemplar Errants]] - Only available in Exemplar Interdiction, but they are a great at keeping him alive thanks to Call to Sacrifice.
* The [[Exemplar Errant Seneschal]] gives him [[Unyielding]], for all that is worth.
* [[High Exemplar Gravus]] keeps him from getting knocked down or made stationary and can take his soul when he dies.
* [[Severius0]] can push his RAT to effective 10 (12 with aim) with two POW13 blessed shots against his Prey target. But even just RAt 8 against non-Prey targets is amazing. Which, when paired with True Sight, makes him a very efficient solo hunter. In return Gade is an excellent model to trigger Road to War with, thanks to Sniper.
* [[Visgoth Juviah Rhoven & Honor Guard]] - If you ever encounter something with a defensive rule True Sight does not ignore, Rhoven can upgrade it to Eyeless Sight instead.
 
<u>Caster synergies</u>
* [[High Exemplar Kreoss]] - He can pop his feat an knock down a bunch of models which Gade can pick of with his crossbows.
* [[Grand Exemplar Kreoss]] - Give him Tough while in his command range
* [[Grand Scrutator Severius]] - He also has Eye of Menoth for extra damage and accuracy, as well as Vision to keep him alive.
* [[Feora, the Conquering Flame]] - Incite is best taken advantage of by guns, and obviously Gade has two of those! With Sevy0, that's a casual +3/+3 to his offences.
* [[Feora the Forsaken]] - She is all about her tally of big hulking warjacks, so Elias is a great insurance she does not lose on scenario by being a fast scoring and contesting piece. Him triggering Road to War for her makes this combo even better.
* [[Anson Durst, Rock of the Faith]] can get use out of him to unjam his jacks ad hold areas, while providing him increased survivability in return, ARM18 is not going to turn him into some unassailable tank, but it helps against blasts and bounces, it might save you one call to sacrifice and it's for free.
 
===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* Outside of his Prey target, he doesn't hit that much harder than his Exemplar Errant brothers. He is purpose build to hunt Single Wound Infantry and solos, so unless you player on a lot of buffs, don't expect him to crack ARM.
* His only survival mechanic outside of Creator's Might, where he gains Reposition, is killing models in units which tend to serve as your front line.
 
===Tricks & Tips===
* Although he's mainly a ranged combat solo, he's still a weapon master in melee and hits as hard as a Knight Exemplar in melee against his Prey target - he can do a surprising amount of damage on the charge (although don't expect him to live through the next turn if you do so).

Model Advantages and Abilities

Pathfinder
Pathfinder
This model treats rough terrain as open terrain while advancing. While charging, slam power attacking, or trample power attacking, this model does not stop its movement when it contacts an obstacle.

No errata for Pathfinder (Create)

Dual Attack
Dual Attack

This model can make melee and ranged attacks in the same activation. When this model makes its initial melee attacks, it can also make its initial ranged attacks. A model with Dual Attack can make its initial melee and ranged attacks in any order you choose. This model cannot make ranged attacks after making a power attack.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Unit Charges (2023-10-27)
Question: If a unit with Dual Attack charges a single model, are all placed in melee range, and the first model kills the charge target, can the remaining members of the unit make ranged attacks, or do they forfeit their Combat Action because they don't have any enemy models in their melee range?
Answer: The check for melee range is done at the end of movement. If you kill the targets before they attack, they can still do their ranged attack. (Malkav13)
Explanation: This post is correct.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Special Attacks (2023-08-10)
Question: Can a model with Dual Attack make any combination of ranged special attack and normal melee initial attacks, or its melee special attack and normal ranged initial attacks? (Example: Bison Both Barrels and Ram, or Mariner Thresher and gunshot).
Answer: No.
Explanation: The bison can not use dual attack and also make a special attack. That is correct in that (Thresher) example too.

In most scenarios, this model can be deployed after normal deployment, up to three inches beyond the established deployment zone.

Call to Sacrifice
If this model is disabled by an enemy attack, you can choose a non-disabled friendly Exemplar Errant trooper model within 5 inches of this model to be destroyed. If another model is destroyed as a result of Call to Sacrifice, remove 1 damage point from this model.

No errata for Call to Sacrifice (Create)


Prey
After deployment, but before the first player's turn, choose an enemy model/unit to be this unit's prey. A model with Prey gains +2 to attack and damage rolls against its prey. When the prey is destroyed or removed from play, choose another model/unit to be the prey.
