Rating: ***
 
 
The Captains have fairly short range, and thus only really shine after battle has been joined. However, if a Captain manages to get two attacks off in a turn, he can make a Tortun powerturn even stronger. Between a Captain's [[scramble]] and a [[Bonesplitter Maul]], getting off a Devastating Combo from a [[Tortalleon Pygmy]] becomes very doable.
 
 
 
While he doesn't come close to the [[Tortun Slamhammer]] in his control capacities, [[Pin Down]] is nevertheless almost as good as stun against melee units. It has great synergy with the other ranged tortuns, by letting them get out of a combat zone intact.
 
 
 
While captains have fair stats, they are not nearly as efficient as the [[Tortun Broadside]] or [[Tortun Grenadier]]. They are okay early deploys, because their attacks will allow other tortuns to get to the fight sooner. Consider how long you expect the game to go if deciding between saving for a Captain or deploying a less expensive ranged tortun. A Captain works best when he will have a large number of allies to boost.
 
 
Note that while they are very, very good units, they are not necessary for a tortun BG. If you run two [[Tortun Mortar]], two broadsides, and two grenadiers, you have a decent ranged array. In KF/FS, you have [[undertow]] as your chief enabler, and in SL/Tortuns, you have [[draconic benediction]], so scramble is never strictly necessary either.

Comments[]

The captain is cheap for his stats and with a better font capping capabilities than most tortuns, the 7 spaces he can move is enough to make him a autoinclude in tortun's bg's, he also provides the powerful scramble, one of the few abilities that supports a phalanx style of gameplay, and the versatility of stab and pin down. He is the only ranged unit in the game with unstoppable. You’ll feel his low real speed hard once the has battle started and you can’t count on accrue anymore.

Good font grabber, good stats and with ap gen but low real speed 7/10

Recommended upgrades: accrue and pin down.
