What I mean when I use the word tank is simply 'warrior'. We clear BWL without, to my knowledge, _any_ protection specced warriors, but we certainly have more than 3 warriors in a raid (5-6 ideally). My point was that the protection tree isn't needed to tank effectively, and becomes less so as your gear improves. Thus you may as well spec dps ;-)
Those mortal strikes come in handy.

We typically have 6 warriors in our BWL runs and I find MS to be a huge boon on Ebonroc. :D
When I set up the tank rotation for Vael I typically will start off with our fury warriors who naturally will out aggro most other warriors will move to the big protection specc'd tanks in the middle to allow for a nice smooth transition to execute range to the end. Though I have been guilty of pulling aggro WITH Salvation pumping back to back executes. :D
