Oh man! Good luck dude, that terrain looks like it’s going to be a problem!
Also, when you get around to it. Why hagbane?

Hagbane is the best general arrow statistic wise against any t4 army also good vs wm and monsters that can wreck any woodies. Edit: saniles I have very few opponents that play t3 armies and at t4 true flight needs bs -3 or better to beat hagbane and as I don’t have a mage bunker in the back I think most of the time hagbane will just be better. knoffles just uploaded some stats on this in WE tactics.

So need to rework this list: Its been utterly slaughtered in two tries against ogres. Games over before my third turn.
The more I play the more I think the only way to play woodies(if up against a good opponent with good list) is full blown evasive.

ok I played my 50 knights army vs Daemons of chaos. It was a disaster :-) The idea is cool but I don't like the fact I have to ambush 3x 10 knights I was thinking to play a lev 2 in a unit of glade guards and maybe the general in a unit of glade riders. they are fast like the wind and I believe he is more protected there. I think if you want to play them evasive you should avoid as much as you can infantry

I have a nasty idea.. 1 unit of sisters + wizard several unit of wild riders ( maybe 3x 5 or 3x6) 3 units of glade riders ( ambushed ) +1 glade captain in each ...all with trueflight arrows we will have 30 arrows from the back ,very evasive units for points denying and eventually ready for a charge with 12 S4 attacks ( often we can reroll to hit) +5 attacks from horses. 3 x 5 units of dancers running evasively and ready to flank and give the bonus... a hero on eagle with hail of doom arrow...

I have something similar but think of treeman ancient so two level 4s.
Don’t think you need that many masters though.

This is my thoughts:
TA can serve same role as eternal guard if needed as a great anvil with LD 10. Eagles, waywatchers and wardancera can and should be all used as chaff when needed. Glade can serve the same role too. Might be too few banners(blood and glory) and maybe glade riders should have them instead of wild riders as they will draw a lot of fire attention together with the ancient. Bsb goes with sisters and this unit should stay out of combat unless certain of the result. Not sure about lore yet to combo/support/compliment with life of TA. Thinking of death. Have not been to happy with shadow so far.

Spellweaver: Level 4 Wizard; Lore of Death; Elven Steed; Dispel Scroll 265 ( lore of death is ok but think also about light ...pha protection can be good to cast on the treeman ,shem glaze and banishment also can be handy ) maybe also lore of the Beast is not that bad...)
Treeman Ancient: Level 4 Wizard 360 ( hmmm beautiful idea but maybe is not fitting too much in an evasive list imho)
Glade Captain: Battle Standard Bearer; Asrai spear; starfire shafts; Elven Steed; Hail of Doom Arrow; Enchanted Shield 151 ( nice)
6 Glade Riders: musician; standard bearer; trueflight arrows 152 ( you know how much I like them:-)
6 Glade Riders: musician; standard bearer; trueflight arrows 152 :-)

I have nothing to contribute here, I just wanted to say I love following this thread. The theory crafting of these lists is super interesting to me
