Note that you can only have a single artifact on a hero.  This is in the Core rules (looking at the free rules pdf, this is on page 17, "Allegience Abilities"), with the except below:

ARTEFACTS OF POWER These treasures are borne to war by mighty heroes. If the allegiance abilities for your army include any artefacts of power, you can choose or roll for one to be carried by a Hero from your army. You may choose one additional Hero to have an artefact for each warscroll battalion you include in your army. A Hero cannot have more than one artefact of power, and an army may not include duplicates of the same artefact of power. Artefacts of power have no effect on attacks made by a hero’s mount unless noted otherwise.

For other notes, are you looking to run a single unit of 6 scythes?  Or 2 units of 3?  Similarly, your dryads?  Is that 1 unit of 30?  or 3 units of 10?  Because you already have your battleline requirements met by your spites, so it seems like a good idea to have that as a single unit of 30.  Though, this might just be BattleScribe having terrible formatting.

I think i just didn't state it clearly, i meant having multiple artifacts across the heroes in your army not multiples on one. Thanks for clearing the rules up on that one, i think i must've forgotten that part or skipped over it.

It's 1 unit of 30 Dryads and 1 unit of 6 Scythe Kurnoths. Battlescribe just shows them in increments for some reason, but you can still summise from the rest of the formatting I suppose

Hey everybody,

I am new to AoS and chose the Sylvaneth, because i love the models and from what I have watched and read up on them their playstyle (mobility, summoning, teleporting etc. instead of just brute force) seems super interesting to me.

I've gotten 2 Start collecting boxes, 2 Units of Kurnoth Hunters and 1 Box of Spite/Tree Revenants so far.

Going from there i have come up with this first 2k list and would like some feedback on it, if it's a solid list at all that will be able to hold its own. I am not looking to be a meta-crusher or anything, but I'd like to be able to put up a good fight once I've figured out how to play this list.

Note, that I am planning to convert atleast one of the Branchwyches from the SC to a Branchwraith and that the Bow Kurnoth were bought already built with them, else i might have gone for Greatswords.

I've seen lists with multiple Artifacts on Heroes, i might have missed something there and all that casting power on the Branchwraith might be a bit overkill, not sure :)

With this I would need to buy 3 more boxes of Spites, 1 of Kurnoth, the Arch - Rev, the Endless Spells, some extra Dryads for Summoning ( I would guess 1-2 more boxes?) and 3 (?) Wyldwoods.

Please let me know if I've made some glaring mistakes here and/or if the amounts of units to still get seem correct to you.

Thanks for your Feedback and I am looking forward to being part of the Glade, 

Cheers!
