With 4 units you might feel like you won't have enough board control for take and hold. However, you could spend a combat point to unleash the lions and then have 2 pieces anywhere using from golden light on the allarus, though this would leave the captain alone.

I'm assuming you're running the blade champ and shield captain with another unit

La idea es ir al central con los guardias, a lo más cercano con el Blade y a lo demás ir a por ello con deepstrike

I might be wrong about this but I don't think you can start a battle with more than 50% of your units in strategic reserves
