Welcome to Gaia! ::

Woodelves are the best archers in the game, and can take out daemons with ease. Everything in their army can hurt a demon and deny its ward save. Woodelves aren't the best for causing fear, the elf units don't cause fear. They are fast, like all elves, and most importantly can go through forests like going through regular terrain. The basic strategy of a wood elf strategy is to piss you off with a lot of arrow shots, and then draw your opponent in a place where you can triple team a single unit. As it is with all elves, you have to charge, and do it on your terms, if you can't, your units will be destroyed, as none of them have any real armour. You can get a ton of attacks with an altar kindred, up to like 7 or 8 on a character, but its still a T3 elf with 2 Wounds, and no armour, if it gets hit even by a regular human, its probably finished.

Nice thing about the Forest Spirit rule. (Dryads, Tree Kin, Treemen) They are daemons, without having to suffer from instability, and all have at least T4, and 2 attacks. For 12 pts a model Dyrads are a steal. They at least get ward saves, and the Treeman can actually cast a spell. (Treesinging) With tree singing, you can transport units about in the safety of a forest, or more diabolically put a forest on your opponent, and then attack the unit that just had a forest basically land on them.

Thats about all I have to say.

mad Wood Elves annoy me, and my slow moving dwarves.

3 inches.

I love my Treeman no wood elf army is complete without a treeman but they are expensive. I mostly go for spirits and archers because i like them best.

If only your lord could choose her spells, and from more than one list?
interesting...

Wood Elves can make a mess of any enemy if they use terrain (namely woods) to good effect. It gives them cover, can be moved (treesinging!), slows down most enemies (difficult terrain), and enhances many of WE spells and magic items. Elves themselves suffer from usual low toughness and armor common in all elven races (in fact worst acess to armor from all 3), but forest spirits make this up with toughness and ward save.
Example: there is nothing more anoying that getting 400+points of Chas chosen spend 3 turns to charge archer unit, reform after failing to catch them and get out of the forest... Or have them moving towards some nice target then see forests close the gap between them and deny charge.

Hey all, i have basicaly dropped my chaos, as some of you might of saw in painting, and i am looking into Wood Elves, i just have one questions. As i am going to for a all female Wood Elven army, i was just wondering, if any at all, how many female bodies are in the Glade Guard boxes. I'm kinda nervues(sp) about trying greenstuff, and possible ******** everything up!
