Wood Elves!

 I finally got around to taking some pics of what I have been working on for my OldWorld Rampant project. As I just finished painting up my Forest Dragon for my Wood Elf warband, I thought that I would start off with them.

I envisioned the Wood Elves being a small, but elite force to be reckoned with. The overall warband is small in numbers, but are of high points value. I'm not sure how these will actually play, but they feel right and seem like they will be fun to play.

The points for this force comes to 40pts, with a figure count of only 16. While only 16 figures strong (at the full 40pts) they seem like they will pack a whallop, but in a glass cannon fashion - striking hard, but no endurance in the long-run; guerrilla fighters. 

First up, 

Prince Immeral

Next up, we have the Twins; Berel and Mithra, both having been blessed by Kurnous with an affinity for animals. Berel has the ability to transform in a gigantic wild boar, while Mithra is able to communicate with her spiritual falcon and perform minor magics.

Mithra

Based on Scout profile. Mithra also has the Hero attribute, which has been included in the points profile. I included Wizardling as an upgrade as a way to reflect her spiritual Falcon's ability to harass/damage opponents. I envision her spells being, Befuddle Thee! (Buffeted by magical wings), Almighty Prod! (Encourages by its spiritual presence) and Banish Fear! (Emboldened by its spiritual presence)

Mithra can also use the standard Shoot characteristic to represent her falcon attacking the enemy.
