I'm new to WFB and looking at starting a Wood Elves army. I'd like to start small, preferably using the Battalion, to see how I like the game and the army. This is what I have so far for a 750 list with the Battalion box. As I understand it, the Glade Riders can be built as Sisters of the Thorn. Comments welcome, thanks for looking!

Hero: 120
Spellsinger: 120
Level 2, Asrai Longbow, Lore of Life

Core: 420
12 Glade Guard: 144
12 Glade Guard: 144
12 Dryads: 132

Special: 208
8 Sisters of the Thorn 208

Total 748

I'd skip the dryads and get some poisoned/trueflight arrows for the archers; then I'd put the spellsinger on horse, so you can have him join the sisters unit. Taking one less sister should even leave enough points for an eagle and a dispel scroll.

Would it be better to take 8 Glade riders or 5 Sisters?
