Re: AOS Wood Elf units, strengths/weaknesses

So I have played a few games with my Wood Elves and have found some comparison of units that seem to work the best for us, I have not used the entire miniature range for Wood Elves as of yet but from what I have played consistently over a few games: Glade Guard vs Waywatchers: Waywatchers IMO are th...

Age of Sigmar: Sylvaneth Wyldwood

Hey guys, I have a question pertaining to the new Age of Sigmar and in particular the Wyldwood. Now unlike other units in the book it does not have any stats of any kind and it is listed as "Scenery". Can we still take this item in conjunction with our normal army list and since it is scen...

Re: AOS Wood Elf units, strengths/weaknesses

Experience that I had today playing my third game of AoS. Now my FLGS really does not like the open ended nature of the list building so our store owner after play testing a vast number of ideas over the last week came up with these guidelines to follow: -Measure from Bases not Model: For ease of ga...

Re: 3000pts. Sethayla Ambush Style

I really like the Acorn just because in my meta there are quite a few armies with shooting, and actually a lot my strategy depends on it, I usually win combat by forcing them through the trees as they don't want to take the time to move around.

Re: 3000pts. Sethayla Ambush Style

Thanks for the responses guys, I went with Glade Guard over Glade Riders because of the fact that I would want as many shots on the table to start the game rather then banking on them coming in from ambush on a random game turn. Would it not be better to add a few units of Glade Riders and keep some...

3000pts. Sethayla Ambush Style

Hello guys, after a long break from Fantasy I have finally decided to get back into the swing of things by rebuilding my Wood Elf army! I have play tested a few times borrowing my friends armies and feel that I have come up with an army that I feel fits the Sethayla theme that I am used to and be co...

Re: Strange Problem With The Wood Elves

I actually got a game in against my WoC friend that I was referring to in the initial post a few days ago, and what I ended up doing was running a fairly normal, friendly, all comers list but I ran a 1750 list against his 2000 pt list. It was an interesting challenge for me, and he pulled out a con...

Cavalry Wood Elves Tactica

Hey guys just as the title suggests this Tactica thread is dedicated to the idea of a pure/heavy Cavalry army of Wood Eves and its effectiveness on the battlefield, a "Super Sethalya" style of army. I ran a similar list with Dark Elves (back when I was considering playing them) and it did ...

Re: WWR Tactica

Seems to me that Wildwood Rangers would be best utilized in an aggressive, assaulting themed Wood Elf army rather then one that sits backs and tries to dance around. Put Wildwood Rangers in an army with Glade Riders, Treemen, Dragon Lord and even Wildriders. Walk between Worlds would be huge here an...

Re: Treeman Ancient

I have thought of the ancient. 4 Treeman will be a real problem for a lot of people. Some armies will have the tools to deal with it; lore of Life is the weakest lore (healing Treemen is fine) but 4D6 Thunderstomp is awesome! Don't forget also in regards to the "Treeman" spam that you cou...

Re: Winter Guardians 2500pts (1st Attempt with New Book)

I think the list looks good from what we know about the book yet, waywatchers being awesome and all that. The core choice is interesting in my opinion. 20 Ambushing Glade Riders could or could not work. What do you intend to do with them? I suppose they're a little big to be just redirectors. I had...
