=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=  
== Changes and Updates ==
==={{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
The Exemplar Bastion Seneschal is now a core piece in Exemplar Interdiction lists with a lot of infantry - Tactician is amazing with medium bases, allowing your units to avoid jamming each other up.
His jack marshall drive is okay but hard to turn on effectively as getting [[Exemplar Bastions]] into position is hard work. The leadership ability is more of a bonus if you happen to be taking Bastions, it doesn’t change how they play, but improves their staying power marginally.


===Combos & Synergies===
==Release Trivia==
* Tactician helps [[Exemplar Bastions]], [[Cinerators]], [[Exemplar Vengers]], and [[High Exemplar Gravus]] navigate around each other. Note that the LOS feature works for defensive strikes,
* Marshalling a [[Repenter]] - a RAT 7 Spray is effective. And between the Seneschal and the [[Choir of Menoth]] it hits hard in melee.
* [[Dervish]] - The cheapest jack in the faction, on par with the Repenter, but it has two initials and Side Step, so it can make excellent use of Flank. With the Choir, Chrush! and Flank, that is two MAT 9, P+S 17, Weapon Master initials. Not bad for a 7 point light at all!
* Marshalling a [[Sanctifier]] - Oof the few melee heavies you actually want to marshal thanks to it generating it own focus from collected souls. Three potential focus plus blessed, Hand of Fate, Flank and the the Crush! drive can be terrifying.
* [[Vassal of Menoth]] - Empower for his jack, if you brought any, so it can charge and Crush!
 
===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* It gets shot (like most marshals) and has the weaknesses of not having focus.
* all of his defensive tech is vs melee and 11/16 isn’t the hardest to kill if left unscreened.
 
===Tricks & Tips===
* You can reposition through your own models using Tactician.
