Wargrove of Woe Command

Glade Captain

The culture of the hunt is strong in Athel Loren and finds its way onto the battlefield. One such example is the tradition of the Wood Elves not to launch themselves into battle until one of their highborn Captains has loosed a shot at the heart of the enemy leader. This duty is allocated before the battle begins, and the firer is granted the honorary title of ‘Talon of Kurnous’. Seldom does the Talon’s arrow kill the target, though Glade Captains are amongst the few to have the skill to even come close. Such is not the intent, rather it is a reminder of mortality for the foe, and a final entreaty to the Hunter for his blessings.

Abilities

• Dance of Loec
  This ritualistic war dance requires neither rhythm nor order, enabling evasion of the enemy’s clumsy attacks, and lethal counterattacks.
• Deadly Onslaught
  Such is the power and ferocity of the champion, that those who stand in his way will falter against the warrior's impact.

Attributes

• Charge Defence vs. Large
  When bracing, this unit negates the charge bonus of any large attacker.
• Encourage
  This unit provides a Lord's aura and an encouraging unit will receive the larger of the two bonuses.
• {{tr:guerrilla_deployment}}
  
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.
• Woodsman
  This unit can pass through trees.
• Fire Whilst Moving
  This unit can fire while on the move.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Guided Projectile
  The projectile fired by this unit can home in on its target.
• Forest Stalker
  Wood Elf units gain accuracy benefits when fighting in forests.
• Armour-Piercing
  The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
• Anti-Large
  Anti-large units have an advantage against targets that are at least as large as a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against large targets or an attack that focuses on a very small area. However, some units are simply better against large targets because their attacks are slow and easy to dodge by skilled melee combatants.
