Re: AOS Wood Elf units, strengths/weaknesses

Anybody else notice the Glade Lord on a Great Stag has Bravery 7 while every other Glade Lord has Bravery 8?

Intentional or typo?

Re: "Age of Sigmar" speculations

The removal of the rules that made fantasy so different from 40k will for me most likely be the end of my fantasy gaming. I will happily play 6-8th ed fantasy if any of my friends want to, but with the game now being skirmish there is almost no reason to play fantasy over 40k. I am really sad. The ...

Re: Unicorn/Stag bus - Fun

All the characters in one unit and go after something that it'll murder [emoji2]

I did originally have a beast and a high Mage with the unit. But thought as much beast magic as possible would be fun. But you're right. The stags DO need protection. But is a reason why I kept them cheap and with a 3+

Unicorn/Stag bus - Fun

Hi all After winning a doubles tournament with my mate (we ran a DE/WE HotEK army) I was inspired by my mate's use of a combat focused character bus. So I've written one up myself. Just quickly. And basic. I reckon not only would it be quite effective but also fun. My gaming area isn't terribly comp...

Re: 2500 Wood Elf vs. Dark Elf

I like what you're trying to do where with this list. First, I'd say split the Wild Riders into 3 units of at least 5. Banner of eternal flame does not work with magical arrows (TFA) I'm not sure what you want to do with the Banner of the Eternal Queen - I'd say drop it Put your Highweaver on a unic...

Re: Light Council Tactics

What would use to support the light council?

I'd suggest
3 units of Wild Riders
Sistersx8 FOC w/ lichebone
Block of Eternal Guard
Couple of Treemen perhaps?

Thoughts?

Re: What We Would Change Revisited

I know I just would have liked to have some sort of special cloak or something, similar to Sea Dragon Cloak (DE) or White Lion Cloak (HE) just to make our Lords more effective. Something like Oaken Armour (5+ scaly skin) or Athel Loren Cloak (additional -1 to hit in cc and shooting modifier) Just br...

Re: Eternal guards, how many?

So a good block of say 28-35, fill rest of core with GR
Have hbScouts and WR as special support
Treemen and/or WW in rare

Re: Eternal guards, how many?

How does everyone build a list around EG?
As a shooty, avoidance army I feel it's easier to fill core with GG and GR and throw in WR, SotT and WW than to have a still block of core.
So my question is, how does one build around a Eternal Guard list?

Re: Friendly Dark Elves Match

He's a very 'push it forward' type player so I expect him to rush everything into combat

As for shooting, yes the hydra and warlocks will be first to go.
Might try and get my wild riders in early to mop up the mess

Hi all My mate has just started up a new Dark Elf army and he is eager to try what he has against my WElves.

Re: Wildwood Rangers

I think a unit of 25 w/ armour piercing banner w/ Araloth could be nice. A big points sink for something not too mobile. But if played right, could be used to entice your opponent to come at you. Say, run fast cav everywhere else so that unit is really the only viable option. Then hammer with Wild ...

Re: Treeman vs Cannon

Drop the sisters and the weaver.
Take Warhawks to go warmachine hunting
And take a Lvl4 Highweaver on a unicorn and run her inform of the treemen. Get some spells off to gain counters and those cannons won't be a thing.
With Treemen, one is no good, two is alright, THREE ARE BETTER

Re: Bow of Loren

I totally agree. Would have been great to have the option to use magic arrows with the BoL.
Would have been even better to get another bow that's utterly hard hitting... Like Alith Anar's bow. Now how Woody is that!?
