* '''[[Commissar]]'''/'''Lord Commissar''' - You've dealt with these guys before in the standard AM, they won't be too different here.  Just remember that his effectiveness will seriously be put to the test since the Scions lack the raw manpower of the rank-and-file.  This means that {{BLAM}}ming a goon costs much more than it normally would. The fact that the Command-Vox Net provides excellent morale to most of the Scion army means that these guys' morale-boosting abilities are not really needed, and the fact that they cannot give orders means that they are a very inferior choice to Tempestus Command Squads: take them only if you really have to because of formation rules, or are masochistic and insane.

* '''Tempestus Command Squad''' - They run like a basic command squad, with the need to buy stuff in exchange for their ability to shoot.  However, their power is marred by the lack of advisers for use, though the ones that can fire gain the good stuff.
** A good option for them is to run them with the Hot-shot volley guns, the 2/4 salvo gun allows the squad to punch above what its number alone would suggest, and allow the squad a decent amount of fire power even if you go with a vox caster and medi-pack (the squad is too small to benefit from a banner). 4 Hot-Shot volley guns hidden in a fortification are an excellent warlord option and will statistically kill entire squads of marines each turn, usually making their points back by turn 2, 3 at the latest.
** The fact that these guys can run 4 meltaguns and twin-link them reliably makes them an excellent unit for murdering those large super-heavy vehicles that will mow through your puny 4+ saves en masse. This loadout usually also comes with a Tempestor with a plasma pistol, because if you're doing this kind of suicidally risky attack Gets Hot is no longer your main problem - return fire is. [[Dakka|MOAR FIREPOWER!!!]]
** Another good option is to take the med-pack and outfit the 3 special weapons as plasma guns. The feel no pain means these men are more likely to survive a gets hot than another squad of scions.
