    Depends on your budget?

    I ran a 1k Khailebron list for a tournament and it did pretty well. Plenty of flexibility for board control with good hitting power.

    1. Bloodwrack Shrine
    2. Slaughter Queen
    3. Hag Queen
    4. 1x10 and 1x20 Witch Aelves
    5. 5 Doomfire Warlocks
    6. 2x5 Khinerai Heartrenders

    This is probably 1 Blood Coven box, 2 Witch Aleves box, 1 Doomfire Box and 2 Khinerai Box.

    That looks fun. Also lots of mortal wounds

    super nice colors. The snow was a very good call. My favorit is the giant color scheme : I feel the light blue is not necessary for this army,  the kaki and yellow are enough and a very unusual and elegant palette. Well done sir !!

    Thanks. Yeah i think the snow is good with the pink. The blue does jump out a bit, but i guess excessive is characterful. I love the giant too, sadly he doesnt see a lot of action though

    Great looking Force! Hoping we get some new mortal Slaanesh additional units soon!

    Interesting to see what happens. In the meantime I will paint my remaining warriors and knights and try to actually play some games!

    i would be down for a chaos dragon

    I have these units ready to go. I have 10 warriors with sword and shield and 5 knights to finish up. I also need to put the hellstriders onto smaller sized bases as these were the only ones I had at the time. I generall play 1000 point games so this gives me plenty of options.

    Haven't played AOS in a long time and decided to paint up some new units for my mortal slaanesh army. I just painted up my sorcerer lord. Quick and easy and used a wood elf head as I am not a fan of the original.

    next I have some chosen to paint. Many say they arent great but they are my favourite unit.

    Definitely one of the best looking armies. Fantastic idea with switching the High elf dragon into a 'forest' dragon! 

    I'm wondering - why are you saying that it's hard to win with these guys? Are the units luckluster in comparison with the more modern AOS armies or do you mean that your force is not yet finished therefore lacks synergy?

     

    I'm starting to build an army of wood elves myself soon so actually I'm pretty interested how they come up in comparison with let's say Stormcasts or other AOS factions. In the end I'll probably end with mixed Sylvaneth / Wood elves army using the behemoths from Sylvaneth (Durthu) and adding a number of archers or other smaller units / heroes from WE (Nomad Prince!).

     

     

    Thanks! They are really fun to play with. It can be hard to win against stormcast due to their fragile nature. They just take a lot of skill to make sure you stay out of combats you dont want and to make the most of shooting. Many people add sylvaneth as they are harder to kill. I prefer to play pure wanderers as i find it a fun and cool force to use.

    in saying all this, i havent played a huge amount of games with them.

    Lovely army. Wood elves was my first army and it's the biggest one in my collection. It's so cool to se others do this army, especially now that the aelves are a bit in under par. 

    Its amazing to see how well the gladeguard models are holding up through the editions. 

    Great job

    Thank you. 

     

    It does seem pretty hard to win with these guys but they are so fun to play.

    yeah the gladeguard are great models, I love them

    I'm a big fan of this little army. Really great use of the Eternal Guard parts. And I like the basing scheme - its very different from the usual schemes that you see which normally have a lot more of a woodland feel. Great job

     

    Thanks man! It is only small but so much variety, got a couple more u its to paint shortly- sisters of the thorn and wardancers. Trying to get a wardancer lord but he is impossible to find!

    Wow! Really love the contrast of the bright green Wanderers marching through snow. I'm just getting into the hobby myself (by way of Total War: Warhammer, never done any sort of miniatures before) and had a similar idea for the Wanderer army I'm piecing together. Inspired by the Beastclaw Raiders lore, I see them marching into the heart of the Beastclaw's Everwinter that has claimed so many forests to kill the first Frostlord. Spring Is Coming!

    Still a little nervous as I finish collecting and building and take my first steps into painting, this is great inspiration! Thank you!

    Great unit selection too! You get the awesome maneuverability of the Glade Riders and Waywatchers but can still castle on an objective with Eternal Guard/Sisters of the Watch. Love the 'band of adventuring heroes' feel that the Wanderers' numerous Hero units give their armies.

    Never would have thought of yellow for the magical fire of the Watch Bows of the Sisters, but it looks great! Seems it may fit the Wanderer color palette better than the blue carried over from their High Elven days.

    Incredible work on the dragon. Rider has an Eternal Guard head and shield and... Wild Rider torso? 

     

    Thanks man. Yeah the snow is definitely different. Like the idea of the elves marching out of their realm to war across a snowy wasteland. I also did the same basing on my chaos army and thought it might be cool to match them.

    And thanks, pretty happy with how the colours look together and always wanted to do flaming fire arrows.

    wood elves have so many fun units and the characters are awesome- especially the waywatcher lord. Unfortunately they don't seem super strong in the game but they require skill and finesse (not that i have that much!) and are rewarding to play. It feels so awesome when everything goes right and all the tricks work! Plus they have a great feel and synergy.

    yep you got all the dragon rider parts, easy to do and really effective.

    good luck with your build and welcome to the game- it is so much fun

    Cheers guys. I haven't seen a lot of wood elves in aos which is why I decided to build some. Pretty happy with the colours too. Wardancers are coming up next.

    here are some close ups of the dragon. Just the highelf dragon with converted rider and green paint job!

    Hi all. 

    Last couple of months I have been collecting and building a smallish wood elf army. These guys have been really fun to paint and play with so far.  I just wanted to share what i have done so far and track my progress.
