Faction: Woodland Realms, 1.0 With Dol Guldur on their doorstep and fell creatures inhabiting the forests and descending from the neighboring mountains, the Wood Elves are well acquainted with armed conflict. Relying on their superior skill at arms and woodcraft, the armies of Lothlorien and Mirkwood are able to ambush and destroy predators and other, more sinister, allies of Mordor. Starting Company 3 Elf Warriors with Elven blade 2 Elf Warriors with Wood Elf spear 2 Elf Warrior with Elf bows Equipment Elven Blade, Wood Elf Spear...................1 Inf. Elf Bow, Throwing Daggers.....................2 Inf. Elven Cloak..............................................3 Inf. Armor (Heroes only)................................1 Inf.

This Hero causes Terror as described in the main rules manual. Stormcaller -- The Hero has learned to channel the elemental forces of the wind with devestating results. The first time this rule is chosen, the Hero gains the Nature’s Wrath magical power, which is cast on a 4+. The second time, he gains access to the Call Winds magical power (found in the White Dwarf article “Reinforcements”) which has a range of 12” and is cast on a 2+. If, when casting a spell, the dice rolled is a natural 6, no Will is expended to cast the power. **A note about Woodland Realms Battle Companies** Thanks to their incredibly long lives, Elves have a long time to hone their skills in battle. Elven heroes may increase their Fight value to 7, instead of 6 like other races. -------------------- I have a buddy who is wanting to playtest this one, so it should be a lot of fun. |

All of these new BCs that you have produced are very thematic and well thought out. I should be able to start play testing the Dunland and Rohan companies next week and then in the middle of August with my friend. Would you like me to do a battle report for a game or two? Keep up the amazing progress  Cyndra the Grey |

Thanks, Cyndra. Battle reports are always great, but what would be most helpful is if you can keep a list of any errors you might see, ambiguous wording, or game balance issues. I really appreciate the offer to help, and I will be happy to credit you as one of the playtesters when the book is finished! |
