Combat solo, unit supporter and jack marshal with a great drive - the Scyir is a well priced solo in the faction. He is adequately defended against blasts, and thanks to Iron Sentinel it takes some dedicated effort to remove him from the table, once in B2B with a friendly jack. He gives all [[Dawnguard]] model in his command range an effective Practiced Maneuvers, plus sports Righteous Vengeance - another reason to stay close to his brothers-in-arms. He confers it to his marshaled jack too, covering a nice area, where the enemy will have to think forward of triggering Vengeance attacks and moves by removing your models.
 
===Combos & Synergies ===
* Expensive jacks draw quite a lot of attention on jack marshals. Stick to cheap ones, like the [[Aspis]], the [[Siren]] or the [[Griffon]], so the enemy will probably have more important targets to go after.
* [[Arcanist Mechanik]] - free focus and Concentrated Power can both cause a marshaled jack to hit way out of its weight class.
* Though your jacks get a quasi-tactician in the [[Legion of Dawn]] theme, your infantry will still be grateful for the movement support.
* [[Magister Helynna|Helynna]] and [[Vyros,_Incissar_of_the_Dawnguard|Vyros2]] both have Deceleration, keeping him at an all-time high ARM against shooting.
* Solos rarely warrant direct support, but [[Thyron]]'s Storm Rager spell is super scary on the Scyir, especially if he has a jack in B2B.
 
=== Drawbacks & Downsides ===
* You will have to pay for all of his abilities, even if you'd use him solely as a marshal, or a unit supporter. Fortunately, he's cheap (or free in theme).
* For all the good he can do, he's terribly one dimensional. Owing to the way the free points works in the Legions of Dawn theme, he can be (and often is) taken purely for Tactician plus the occasional troubleshooting. Bringing a jack with him is viable, but almost always necessitates bringing the max FA (3) of Arcanist Mechaniks to let the marshal'd jack do work.
 
=== Tricks & Tips ===
* He can get Iron Sentinel from any Jack, not just his own. Even better, you can get Iron Sentinel from knocked-down or stationary jacks too (though you should only consider this, if your enemy has no AoE or spray attacks).
* Tactician works with either version of Vyros, and on himself too. If all else fails, you can still charge in through your lines for a MAT8 P+S12 weapon master attack.
