That's... pretty much it actually.
Can't tell if real or joke.. :confused:

Following your logic though, I'd argue that arrows are not shot. What are they shot with? After you shoot an arrow with something, wouldn't it be too damaged to be loosed afterwards? ;)

Re: Anathir's Wood Elves - Upd4: 5 x Wardancers

These are great. I'll be starting to paint the first of my woodelves, and hope they look this good.

Re: Blog of Battle

hahaha close enough I guess. I'm probably going to refer to the breath attack as indigestion now when I'm playing the game.

Re: Blog of Battle

I'll probably keep playing them in a unit of 5-6 for now, I only have that many wild rider models anyway. I have a 2500 point game on Thursday against a High Elf friend, and we've both agreed to take dragons. I've been really wanting to field one, there's just nothing in my opinion that screams fant...

Re: Blog of Battle

Hey Surly, thanks for the tips. I think the 6 dicing is a good idea i'll try that next time I'm against a tough magic defense. I had a team game against dwarves on Thursday, and it was a similar situation in regards to magic. I wasn't six dicing though, but I should have. How many wild riders do you...

Every so often I'm going to write up a report (and hopefully figure out how to use Chronicler or Herald!), and learn from my mistakes. This was a pitched battle, at 2000 points.

Re: Double flee question

If you flee with one unit, they redirect at your other which subsequently flees, can't they still catch the first one? I'm still trying to understand the advantage of the double flee vs the single flee. Edit: Oh, they have to hit the second one or its a failed charge. Maybe just answered my own ques...

Do you have a tutorial for it? And how do you get battle chronicler reports to go online? I've used it before, but had to upload...

Re: 8th Edition Wood Elf Tactica

Tomb kings is my main army, so maybe when I get some more games under my belt with wood elves I could help with an article against them. If nobody else tackles it first of course.

Re: 2250 Advice Wanted

I just had a 2000 pt game against an Empire army. It was a decent game, but I ended up losing. My deployment wasn't great, and I guess I'm still figuring the army out. He had a unit of approx 20 Reiksguard knights and a Reiksmarshal lord with a runefang sword, which did most of the damage. I didn't ...

Re: 2250 Advice Wanted

Thanks for the replies! For now I'll try out the 3 units of dryads and see how it goes. For 2500 I can add 6 wildriders with banner of swiftness, plus another eagle, which should do well. For 2000 I'll try out your suggestions. I'll probably get in a game early next week, so I'll let you know how th...

2250 Advice Wanted

I've just gotten in my first few games with Woodelves, and am looking to make a decent list at 2250. My main opponents will be high elves, lizardmen, and empire, but hopefully I can make a list that is decent all around. I'm a little bit worried about the high elves, just because I've heard with the...

Eagle noble

Hi, quick question:

When a character is riding an eagle and gets into close combat, can the opponent choose who to direct attacks against? Meaning, can they direct attacks just against the rider or just against the eagle if they want?

Thanks

Re: First Match 2000 pts

Okay, the 10 man units sound good. I'll drop the brooch and take a banner + banner of swiftness on my wildriders. I might try and scrounge a few more points to giver the spellweaver the pigeonplucker's pendant, but other than that I think I'm set for the match. Thanks for the tips!

Okay so I've put together a 2000 pt list for this Thursday, it will be my first real match with wood elves. I based it on some of the advice given by Godswearhats in his beginner's threat, so thanks for making that one gwh. I've made some changes to it though, and was wondering what people thought o...

Re: What to get, what to scrap?

Awesome-sauce, I'll get some games in and see how things go/adjust from there. Very interested in the eagle noble and Treekin. I can see how 6 treekin would be a pretty powerful force.

Re: What to get, what to scrap?

Thanks for the input guys, I appreciate it. Yeah the dragon is more just for fun sometimes, but normally I'll use a lvl4 spellweaver. I think I'll use the waywatcher models as scouts. I'm not sure how useful scouts are, but I imagine they give you some options tactically, or are just annoying to the...
