Hi guys I've been scratching my head with my choice of models for my sylvaneth army, basically I've gone with a haunted Forrest theme and picked models to fit that theme with no thought to actually playing the game, mistake I know, so I'm wondering if you gents and ladies can help.

What could I use my arraknorok as?
Same with spirit hosts ?

I've heavily converted them for a tree theme so they look the part, just wondering how I will fit them in?

I think you could use the spirit hosts as melee Kurnoths. Just add some branches here and there and you are fine.

The spider, am afraid, can't be used...

Maybe you could use the Spider as Alarielle the Everqueen with some heavy converting and of course an Aelf lady riding on it? I'd be fine with it as an opponent at least.

So obvious why didn't I think of that

Hmmm that's a good idea actually, I never planned on buying any hunters so they won't get mixed up and confuse people.

Brilliant idea. Spider, dung beetle, what's the difference*?

*yes, yes, insect vs arachnid, move along.

You could use the spirit hosts to enhance actual large sylvan ethical units, to make them look like ghosts or spirits hanging over kurnoth hunters or your tree lords.
