Total: 2000 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 0
Allies: 0 / 400

Are Grandstaves the better option for Evolines when you take into account the possible buffs provided through:

Pride Leader: +1 to hit

Celestial Blades: +1 to wound

Empower: re-roll failed to wound rolls

 

Also wondering if a Heraldor might be better then Gavriel here, because I feel like I'm starving for CP's and when needed could select a CA 6" run coupled with Heraldor's run and charge ability.

Feedback would be appreciated.

Any hero can use their Command Ability. 

You can't use an ability if you are not on the table (unless the ability says otherwise)

The core rules are pretty clear about this stuff, it's under the Hero Phase section on page 3

Alright, thanks for clearing it up. Even after reading that page again, I still don't see an explicit statement that you cannot use a hero specific CA whilst in reserve though? Unless "hero in your army" means the army on the table..

I'm confused right now in regards to Command Abilities. Am I allowed to use Gavriel's CA with a different hero as long as Gavriel is alive? If yes, what if he is held in reserve, can we use his CA then? 

Or.. are CA only usable by the hero who has it unless otherwise stated? I can't seem to find the answer within the Core Rules.

Do you roll once for the Cometstrike Sceptre or do you roll separately for each unit within range?

What is everyone's thoughts on his updated warscroll?

These characters look very underwhelming for their points costs. ?
