Spites & WYSIWYG

How does one model Spites so that they are WYSIWYG and an opponent has some clue what they are and what they can do?

Are there any accepted conventions?

A wood can be both 1/2 and 1/4. The rule book also describes a very difficult wood with thick briars, so I think I can deploy either sort, so long as it is a wood. Anything with trees seems a little broad. A desert oasis of palm trees or the jungles of Lustria or the dank forests of Malekith's realm...

What exactly is 'our' terrain?

A wood is pretty clear from the main rule book. Drycha's rules talk about forests. Where are they defined in the rules anywhere? Are they difficult or very difficult? And what is 'similar'? Is a wood similar? Can Drycha Spirit-walk into a wood. I assume not. What about scrub, brush, orchard, or jung...

OK. The 1000 point army:

Branchwraith, level 1, Radiants, Shrikes :- 165 points

3 x 8 Dryads @ 96 :- 288 points

1 x 4 Treekin :- 260 points

Treeman :- 285 points

TOTAL :- 998 points

Tiny, inexpensive, and interesting. Is it effective and is it 'fair'?

Thanks for your help Sethayla.

Dang, sorry about that, it's autospell correct. I typed in spites and it 'corrected' them to sprites.

I'm looking for advice on specific spite combinations. I don't have a clue. I've just made an allowance for them. I'm not sure this army should have hotsaps in it; trees only. Maybe I could come up with a different type of Dryad which would be a Glamourweave spellsinger on a steed. Centaursingertree...

I've been playing since early 5th ed.

Since I do not play Asrai yet, I have no favorite, but from the reading I like Drycha and the story of Durthu.

Beware, the Wildwood Goes! 1000 - 2500 trees, help please

For 5th ed, I got my first WHFB army, Vampire Counts, which I still play as my main army. For 6th ed, I got a non-Fantasy Empire army, absolutely no magic, magic weapons, or fantasy elements and based on the historical armies of the French Religious Wars. It is now time to choose my 7th ed army. Bot...

Help me tell the Woods from the Trees

ArchMagosAlchemys is an old handle from another board which I have decided to keep. I shall have to come up with a more Asrai-type name.

I teach school in Atlanta, Georgia, but I am a Kiwi by birth and inclination.
