The Wardancers being viable again makes me happy. Wardancers and Waywatchers were always my favorite units to see my opponent bring. They are such cool unts. The dryads getting buffed with having a higher T makes them viable again as well. Which I think is really cool. Somewhere I'd like to see the meme game of an all ambush Wood Elves vs Beastmen game.
Love Wardancers/Waywatchers. Being able to completely cover their approach now with you own woods blocking LoS and how insane initiative can be with "step up" is going to make them so fun.
10:15 if you really want to be gamey and follow rules to the point then you can just buy Squig herds and loads of goblin handlers to them and as they take casualties you just remove the goblins and if anyone complains you point to the rule: "Casualties are removed from the back ranks of units, not the front, so models will only be prevented from fighting if their unit is fully destroyed before they strike back."
Deepwood scouts have a 4 bs and a woods still give wood elves a debuff on charging, move through cover gets rid of the minus one to move but not the effect that makes you take the lower d6 out of the 2. I loved the video, I will now be buying some glade riders

Dryads had T4 in 8th as well
Yeah I agree! I really like Dryads too, even if it's mostly when they're min squads. Great chaff piece.

That is unfortunately incorrect, as these units boast the "Motley Crew" rules, so the deaths have to be taken out in a particular way.

Treeman aren't unbreakable unfortunately, so need to be more cautious, you can't just toss them in wherever like you can with giants
Potion of Strength + Bow of Loren is pretty funny, especially with Arcane Bodkins.
And Plague of Rust from Elemental magic. Bodkins+Plague of Rust just machine guns entire units of Bretonian cav of the table. :P
For sure! That made it into my first list, but not the final. Just hard to find points for everything at 2k!
the -2AP arrow used to be -3AP, are the sample army 2000p?
These are 2k armies. It sorta makes sense to reduce the AP, when you consider the changes to how armor saves work!
