  1. I see it as a mixed blessing. Yes, it means Bow Hunters/wizards casting most spells will not be able to hide in woods and fire out. But, as we will be placing the woods, it gives a boost to our (already fairly strong) board control abilities.
  2. I hope that there are plans for a general 'free peoples' battletome including men, aelves, duardin etc, etc. This could either include the Free Cities or be a Free Cities Battletome. If this is to happen it will probably be some time away though.
  3. Yeah, this is how I imagine it going down too.
  4. From the newly updated Designer's Commentry for Sylvaneth Battletome: "Q: Does the Overgrown Wilderness scenery rule apply to the Citadel Woods that make up a Sylvaneth Wyldwood? A: Yes."
  5. This I can believe. I can't see any of the post-Sylvaneth battletomes getting updated (with the exception of what appears to be the annual Stormcast one) but I wouldn't be surprised if we get new battletomes for those that came out before Sylvaneth.
  6. So, after 2 years of collecting this is what my collection looks like... Sylvaneth Built and painted: Treelord Ancient Spirit of Durthu Branchwych 25 Dryads 5 Tree-Revenants 3 Kurnoth Hunters - bows 3 Kurnoth Hunters - scythes (last one just need the paintjob finishing) Built but unpainted or still on sprue: 19 Dryads (intially only to do another 12 to make a total of 2 units of 20) Treelord Drycha Hamadreth Branchwych (Am looking at getting a Branchwraith soon too) Other (Mixed Order) Built and painted: Old metal High Elf mage which use as a Loremaster (he has a sword!) Battlemage (Jade) Built but unpainted or still on sprue: Knight-Azyros Mistweaver Saih Battlemage (Amber) 20 Freeguild Archers 20 Eternal Guard 16 Glade Guard (want another 4)
  7. They were the ones first sent to free Ghyran from chaos and formed alliance with the sylvaneth. And they planted Alarielle's seedpod for her to be reborn.
  8. With the new GHB in my hand and re-reading the Living City allgiance abilities page, I've changed my list to this: Leaders: Treelord Ancient 300 Nomad Prince 80 Knight-Azyros 100 Branchwych 80 Branchwraith 80 Waywatcher 120 Battleline: 20 Dryads 200 20 Glade Guard 240 20 Freeguild Archers 200 Other Units: 20 Eternal Guard 140 3 Vanguard-Palladors 200 3 Kurnoth Hunters 200 Total: 1940 This leaves me with 60 points for either a command point or endless spell.
  9. Oh, I've just thought - I think the new FAQ ruled that the TLA ability to grow a wyldwood can only be attempted once, irrespective of how many you have. So taking a second wouldn't help.
  10. Thanks for the feedback - and I hadn't realised about the allies, that's a shame but will keep the concept of Chamleon Skinks for non-Living mixed Order lists. Could swap out the Mistweaver for more points (maybe to go towards another TLA) or for a Branchwraith (dryad summoning). I know I was using the old points but is more of a rough guide until I get my hands on the new GHB (hopefully this weekend). I hadn't realised about the gryph hounds - that's a shame as I like thier ability to warn of close by enemy units. Not sure I'd want 6 though. Anyway, my first job is to build the rest of the Freeguild archers, Wanderers and Dryads (I have one unit of 20 done but am working on a 2nd for my Sylvaneth army anyway).
  11. Great thread - fantastic idea to start this. I have a Sylvaneth army which I am expanding into (and out of) a Living City force. As more of a narrative/theme player, I've spent ny hobby time this week building Freeguild Archers. 10 down, another 10 to go. I've also got Eternal Guard and Glade Guard on my to build pile. Working towards a list which looks something like this: Allegiance: The Living City LEADERS Treelord Ancient (300) Nomad Prince (80) Knight-Azyros (80) Battlemage (100) - Specialisation : Jade Mistweaver Saih (80) - Allies UNITS 20 x Dryads (200) 20 x Freeguild Archers (200) 20 x Glade Guard (240) 20 x Eternal Guard (160) 3 x Vanguard-Palladors (220) 2 x Gryph-Hound (80) 5 x Chameleon Skinks (120) - Allies TOTAL: 1860/2000 WOUNDS: 138 LEADERS: 5/6 BATTLELINES: 3 (3+) BEHEMOTHS: 1/4 ARTILLERY: 0/4 ALLIES: 200 / 400
