Good, name it the "Never give up!" rule.

Too a disadvantage, IMHO.

librarian at a direction chosen by the Salamanders player. Any model
(friend or foe) in its path is hit on 4+ with a TSM of 0. Since this
is a physical manifestation of the spirit of the salamander, psychic
saves do not apply but normal saves do. A detachment losing one or
more models to the attack must make an immediate morale check.
