Re: Unicorn /w Swedish comp question
The Unicorn's MR counts as a penalty against the Sisters (and Wild Riders if you take a large enough unit). The assumption is that the Unicorn will go in the Sisters unit giving the sisters a better ward save. Even if you don't play it that way, or plan it that way, Swedish takes all combos into acc...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
There was some changes to LoS, virtual pivots, etc. But the biggest ones were the cards for the first 4 rounds which gave up to 600 bonus VP for completing them. These caused me to lose most games, or lose my a lot more than I was previously losing. For example, there was a card that gave you 450 vp...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
What happened to the West Coast in general? You have some very good players, which was proved at Bragging Rights but it seemed to be MA and the South making the pace here. Do you think the comp hurts WE's Rhuell? The West this year brought a lot of new players that weren't used to the 20-0 system w...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
Yes, Fred managed a fantastic placing and swung Top Wood Elf. I blew the bucket. The first two games I couldn't roll 5s to push through a few needed wounds to take down the last model in a few units. Game three I charged a Vampire Lord that had been frogged and failed to push through all three wound...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
If low level mages are so prevalent wouldn't a waystalker be a viable option? They are totally a viable option, but they take a serious composition hit, so you have to decided what else you are willing to give up. A single Waystalker not only counts as 5 comp points, but also counts as 5 archers to...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
What is the point of full command everywhere? For me, it was to get over minimum core without taking a penalty for additional shots over 60. So that was 30 points that put me over minimum core without impacting comp. The standards are needed because of special scenario bonus victory points for brea...

Re: 2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
The Comp rules are full Swedish using 15.02 with the bonus victory points for difference in comp score. So for each .1 difference, you get an additional 10 victory points. Most lists look they are in the 11-12 range so higher lists will start the game almost 200 points up. The Level 4, Level 1 thing...

2015 U.S. Master's Wood Elf Army Lists
So as the lists are becoming known, I thought I would post here the Wood Elf army lists for those players participating in the U.S. Masters next weekend. All of these lists are based on Swedish Comp 15.02 and use the difference in composition points for bonus battle points. Here is my (Rhuell) list,...

Re: 2500 swedish 14.4
the WE list (depending on preferences) runs 40-50 GG (20-25 True FLight/Hagbane) and waywatchers plus the Hail of Doom and pays the xtra comp points for more shooters (anywhere up to 15 way watchers in builds I've seen) with either Heavens for bubble re-rolls of 1s (which makes the shooting super ef...

Re: 2500 swedish 14.4
the lists biggest issues are going to be the slanneshi daemon list (its faster than your list and has a lot more bodies, plus two soul grinders are hard to drop quickly unless your poison is bonkers) and a single cacophonic will really mess up your day - but that list comps in the 9-12 range so you ...

Re: 2500 Swedish Comp army list (U.S. Master's Qualifier)
I did miss Hagbane arrows, but since Swedish comp penalizes both Hagbane and Trueflight arrows equally, I feel that Trueflight arrows are better for their bang when limited to only a few small units. I might switch it up so that there is a unit of both Trueflight and a unit of Hagbane, but I need to...

Re: 2500 Swedish Comp army list (U.S. Master's Qualifier)
Nice. No shields on the WR how did that go. Btw I'm not sure if you can take star fire on the GC when he has the HoDA? The HoDA is a single use item that is not affected by the enchanted arrows. The U.S. Master's pack allows for the multiple enchanted items so long as one of them is an arrow choice...

Re: 14.3 Swedish 2500 pt. Wood Elf List
Hi FriedTaterExplosion, Playing WE with the same environment and rules you are probably playing with (masters pack I assume), here are my thoughts. Take them with a grain of salt because everyone's meta is different. First, split the Wild Riders into two six packs (find the points). They are worth i...

Re: Masters pell list
For a Master's list, this list gives up too many points. Especially to overcome the starting deficit it will face in most games. As Masters requires an 8-14, you can expect lots of other armies to be close to 12-14, making it so you are already down a few hundred points to start the game. Also, alth...

Jacob Berry, quit giving Wood Elf players bad names. And if you could make them stubborn they would be the most awesome tarpit because you then run them 1 by 2 once the Dragon dies so they can never kill the second character in the same phase as all close combat attacks would hit the model in front ...

Re: Enchanted Arrows vs banner of the world dragon Question
They would.
Our rule states: "All shooting attacks made with enchanted arrows count as having been made with magic weapons."
The BotWD allows the 2++ against magical weapons. So they would get it.
