Ultimate MSU ( E.T. )
Now that the 3 elves books are just one we can bring ( almost ) everything to the table . In my humble opinion the only thing we can't bring is low points wounds , since the less expensive units are core fighters for 9 pts ( not exactly that cheap ) . I'll try to list what we can bring : 2500 pts , ...

Re: White Lions Attacking Dark Elves
The " problem " is that you reroll against something that is actually attacking first , while rulewise it has no problem ( my fault , i should have written logically speaking ) it has a lot logically and fluffwise . I see it as a big problem even though rules are apparently pretty clear ( ...

Re: White Lions Attacking Dark Elves
There are some bug in other rules as well . Since the asf rules says that you rerol against eveything that hasn't asf and has lower initiative in a combat like this : Phoenix guards vs demon prince with great weapon vs trolls The order is 1) phoenix guards with asf 2) trolls with i1 3) demon prince ...

Thanks for the response Shining Wolf. Where did you have your archmages in this list? Shadow in the archer bunker? And High in the White Lions ? I agree with what you say about the numbers. I'd be happy with 20-25 Phoenix Guard. But would want to try and get the Lions up to 30. Personally I love my...

If you are looking for tips to improve the list this is what i'd suggest : 1) Run named lords : teclis in particular , but alarielle + 2 lv1/2 light mages are fine as well . With teclis you...

Re: archaon

Good game . It is true that botwd is overpowered , but as far as i understand is almost the only eay to counter some things . Imho if your opponent doesn't like the banner you could always not take it , since it looks like ( but keep in mind i don't play against vc that much ) that he's not running ...

Since i have never played a campaign , please could someone explain exactly how it works ? And do you know if in this particular one we can play with all the army and not only empire / vampire counts ? Because there are vampire counts player , but none is playing empire . Will it be fine anyway ?

That is quite an awesome goal , to be the best high elf commander and even 7th overall is nothing to laugh at ! I'll just say one thing : you deserved it !

Both left flanks seem somehow frail to me , if i were you i think i might try to take down that lone chariot as fast as possible and turn the right flank towards the main block , setting up flanks charges , because i think he has not your movement bonus , since he runs a bigger blocks .
