Hi,

I know this list looks like(and it is) much like any 'power-games' Wood elf list, but in the very beginning i got this idea about, "renegade" elves who started robbing, and killing people after they got banished from the Athel Loren, because of the reason X. (English isn't my first language btw. And yes, i think it shows. Just wanted to assure you guys that im not drunk while typing this, lol .)

So i wanted lot's of ambushing glade riders for very obvious reasons (bandits, thugs & other killers charging from the woods against unlucky by passers, etc). Next choise waywatchers where very obvious one too(snipers shooting their poor victims from the darkness).

Wardancers... not very good pick up game-wise, but i wanted to add some elven blademasters to my army, in a way or another.

Point for point i think Glade Riders are just superior to Glade Guards, because riders wont get killed so easily. Still again, i wanted to include atleast some Glade Guards in my army, maybe they can add liitle bit pressure in the early turns if my ambushers wont appear... just maybe...

Wild Riders&Sisters of thorne are very obvious choise game&fluff-wise too. (Well ok, i admit sisters look a bit weird in bandit army, but i wanted to put my riding spellweaver somewhere).

I played around Glade lord and Forest dragon a LOT(powerfull commander of the renegades, lol). But if I take him with hes flying green beast, i feel like i cannothandle high toughness + strong armor saves units anymore(Not enough magic in my army if i pick up dragonlord). - I just think cannons etc would be too happy to shoot dragonlord, + without any(real) hammer&anvil units he would be too vulnerable to just about everything out there. (i know i have poison for high toughness, and waywatchers for armor saves, but i don't feel guite "satisfied" with only those options & answers versus other armies)

Id like to hear what you think about this army, power-wise, & what i could try to do with wardancers (other than guard one waywatcher unit maybe, i heard some people use them for "redirection, but i don't really know what that means, lol.) & if you have any ideas how to include glade lord on forest dragon in away i can still deal with high toughness + strong armor saves units would be nice to hear. (I dont don't wanna take Naestra&Arahan, just because im not very big fun of using special characters. And i know, they are pretty cool.)

Any comments about army are welcome thou. I don't expect any fluff points. My "fluff" is for my own brain mostly.
