Plasmoid's league IS using MA 5 AV 9 High elves, so it may be not-so-confusing.

Why did I read all this stuff?!!?
I read all this thraed today...

And I have serious work to do, like painting my goblins!!! :pissed:


At least there were the new elves.... they look good...

Really I like the concept of a new AG4 team.... I like variety - and in our small league everybody makes a effort to have diferent teams - so having one more pick for Ag4 is interesting....

But where to fit it in stats and flufy... I completly against new teams taking the place of old good tested teams...

Another thing I deslike is "one skill for all" teams... like amazons and norse!.. I reckon they work, but that isn't enought to make me like the concept....

The worst is: I read all this and now haven't anything interesting to say... :-?

Maybe that would be a good idea. Must be interesting to play, I think...

So who wants to take bets on whether or not they are a broken team?

I'll have fiver that says they have too much stat/skill for too little a price.

I'll go double or nothing that they make playing the High Elf or Wood Elf teams pointless and unattractive.

Pariah: I may agree with the first comment, and find it hard to believe that a team with this much exceptional strength and agility can be balanced. I don't think that the second statement is true. You're lacking movement to go with the agility, and you can't stretch the field with them for fear of not being close enough to a Thrall. Elves are still highly attractive if only for their depenability.

I saw a quick draft of the list. I can't remember the specifics so I won't post them here in order to avoid spreading rumours, but my initial reaction was pretty good. I think they were probably closest to High Elves and were farily conservative in starting skills. It was only a draft though, I haven't seen anything lately.
