Remember it's not about whether WAR is capable of completing the content, it's about efficiency/safety versus bringing a second PLD.
Is there a vid of war tanking turn 1? He does wreck.

I've never liked warrior, but for a (LONG) while in 1.0, it was the god tank. It happens. It shouldn't and it sucks, but for most of the game's life span only one tank has been viable.
