My reasoning for the character choice.
-Korhil is reasonably tough and can make the Sword Knights Stubborn.
-Mage is good for Anti-Magic, or if their weak versus magic, I may be able to hurt them pretty badly.

My reasoning for the core choice.
-Cheap, and doesn't have a banner which would award 100 points to my opponent.

My reasoning for the Special Selections.
-Sword Masters are nasty and have enough numbers they may survive the shooting they normally attract.
-White Lions are Stubborn and should be able to anchor a flank from most dangerous units, and can move through trees.
-Shadow Warriors are useful for taking quarters, or making an opponent hunt them down. . .

I like the idea / units, but everything's on foot and you've got no shooting. It also might be nice to see a banner in those squads. But I'm not really sure at 1000 points since I haven't seen too many lists at that level. I think this has a chance to do well against certain lists, but might have trouble against faster moving (or all shooting) lists.

If this is a tournament and you want to be mean, consider a Dragon Mage with Silver Wand and RoF. At 1k points, it's enough to overwhelm opponent Magic Defenses (7PD + RoF by himself). Big points sink, but usually will draw attention away from everything else as well (and provides a bit of Terror-bombing that most people won't be able to deal with at this level). Dragon Mages are really really good at lower points value games.

The biggest weakness in the list are the Shadow Warriors. While they can take quarters, only takes a round of shooting for them to be less than US5. I also agree with RiTides comment about the speed of this list. Even with Woodsmen on the White Lions, this list is a bit slow.
