Here's a quick video that gives you an overview of this powerful army:

Command a Powerful and Versatile Army

High Elf armies are built for both offense and defense, allowing players to adapt to any battlefield challenge. Their core infantry consists of well-trained Elven Spearmen, providing a solid front line, and Elven Archers, who rain arrows on enemies from afar. More versatile troops, like the Lothern Sea Guard, are equally skilled in melee and ranged combat, giving players flexible options. Ellyrian Reavers, fast-moving cavalry, and the heavily armored Silver Helms bring speed and impact to the battlefield, making High Elves one of the most mobile armies in The Old World.

For those seeking elite warriors, High Elves offer unmatched units like the Swordmasters of Hoeth, masters of the blade, and the White Lions of Chrace, fearless axemen known for their resilience. The Phoenix Guard, mystical warriors with an unshakable resolve, stand as a nearly unstoppable force. Meanwhile, Shadow Warriors operate as stealthy scouts, disrupting enemy lines with precision strikes.

High Elf forces also feature legendary cavalry and war machines, including the Dragon Princes of Caledor, noble knights mounted on powerful warhorses, and Lion Chariots of Chrace, deadly combat vehicles pulled by fierce lions. Their Eagle-Claw Bolt Throwers unleash devastating volleys, cutting down enemy ranks with ease.

Lead Legendary Heroes and Wield Powerful Magic

High Elf armies are led by some of the most iconic characters in Warhammer lore. Commanders like Princes and Nobles inspire their troops and turn the tide of battle with strategic brilliance. Archmages and Mages channel the winds of magic, using spells from the Lore of Saphery to heal allies, weaken enemies, or unleash catastrophic destruction. For those who crave both combat and magic, Dragon Mages soar into battle atop mighty dragons, blending spellcasting with raw physical power.

Special characters such as the Handmaidens of the Everqueen bring unparalleled ranged combat skills, while Loremaster upgrades provide warriors with deep magical knowledge, enhancing both their spells and combat prowess.
