The Defenders of Ulthuan

THE SHORT VERSION

Adam Troke argues that High Elf success depends on controlled movement, choosing where to receive charges and preparing a decisive counterattack. He surveys the units’ strengths while repeatedly returning to their combination of lethal skill and physical fragility. Support from chariots, cavalry, Eagles, missile troops and magic helps the infantry deliver its attacks without being overwhelmed. A 2,498-point example assigns explicit jobs to sweepers, a firebase and complementary elite blocks, illustrating a plan to concentrate the army against selected portions of a larger enemy force.
