Start Playing Sylvaneth: The BEST Sylvaneth Units for Age of Sigmar 2023
Ойындар
When people are jumping into a new army at the shop they always ask me what the go-to units are for the army. We all know it takes a good chunk of time to build and paint those new units, so it's nice to know which ones are the "good" ones before we get started. So boom, here's the scoop on Sylvaneth.
***Gnarlroot, not Gnarlwood, whoops!

It's time to retire these models to Old World -diabolical laugh-
As someone who's just about to start collecting Sylvaneth, I'm really glad that you made this video - thank you!
Can you please make a video like this for every army? I loved every minute of this.

As a new player to AoS, these videos are so well layed out but also a really great showcase of the armies! I would love to see more for all the factions for sure to really showcase AoS. I'm able to learn some of the nuonces of list building as well as some of the cool mechanics these models have! Thankyou for the effort you put in to making these. I have subbed for that reason.
Finding this video for 4th Ed AoS was very helpful.
Amazing Video. I don't play Sylvaneth but finally understand what they do and what each unit is called and what they look like and do. Would love to see this for more races :) A little tipp. Could you leave in the name of the artifact, season, unit etc. that you talk about. It helps to remember the names and not have to constantly scroll back m Thx a lot 😊

Great video. I’ve always liked sylvaneth I’m sure I’ll eventually start collecting them.
This was so helpful. Just started AoS with some buddies and chose Sylvaneth. Thanks! Looking forward to more videos!
I recently had the idea of getting into warhammer fantasy, then i found out it was discontinued 8 years ago, then I find AoS. It is a dauting task to get into and I gotta admit, I love your videos. Easy to digest and informative!

Great vid. A really good actual how to play rather than just running on about abilities and warscrolls.
Thank you for the video! Very clean explanations! Big fan of Drycha and Warsong, trying to build a competitive list with them and some kurnoth! The Heartwood list you made looks fun! Any chnages you would make to it to kick it into higher gear? Greatbows useful at all? Thank you for any help im a very new player.
@warpfireminis
Жыл бұрын
Greatbows can be solid for sure as they can contribute while not being in the fight; you're typically only full sending one unit in at a time so that you can fade them back out. If you wanted to swap some Scythes or Rev Seekers out for bows it'd probably be fine.
Awesome content! Can’t return slain models to tag units previously untagged by that unit though

Whoops! You're right, you can set up within 3" as long as one of the remaining models is within 3" still, just not into a new enemy unit you aren't within 3" of.

Thank you very much for this video. I want to switch over from 40k since I like the AOS Models way better. This is a very nice video to get into my chosen Army :)
Drycha is a slingshot. She can teleport and shoot so her threat range is massive

What are the paints you used for your minis I love the color scheme
Crazy how that Revenant seeker tactic almost triples your chances of making the charge

to get ward 6+ from burgeoning unit wholly within forest or overgrown cant charge :) important thing with this season

@warpfireminis

In some melee-focused matchups they can be the MVP, and then other matches they're the worst thing on the battlefield; the disparity there is why we don't see them star in a lot of competitive lists.
3x kurnuth with bows and drycha focus firing any unit that come,s close 25 dmg? Or sniping key units.
@warpfireminis
Жыл бұрын
Three units of Kurnoth bows + Drycha focus firing will do around 25 damage to a 4+ save.
Great Video with some great information, especially enjoyed the tips and tricks the Revenant Seekers can help with. One small correction, at 21:35 you say you can tie something else in combat with a unit due to the return, you cannot place models within 3" of a unit you are not already within 3" of. Core rules 14.2.1 RETURNING SLAIN MODELS. Otherwise great video with great tips and tricks
@warpfireminis

Yep, can't tie them in combat! Thought for a second you could if you were already in combat, but definitely can't.
And how can I start Sylvaneth? Which boxes are for a great start, also what was the name of the box for the wildwoods?

For Sylvaneth the Vanguard box or two is a great start, then I'd add in a Warsong Revenant pretty quick too! The Wyldwood box is called an, "Awakened Wyldwood"

Gossamid archers?
@warpfireminis
Жыл бұрын
Gossamids are situationally great. They don't do much damage, but the movement blocking they can do with their Unleash Hell trick can be REALLY good into melee focused armies that don't do a bunch of MW on the charge. Armies that have shooting, good spells, or MW on the charge can just delete them a little too fast; for ranged damage I'd stick with the Kurnoth Bows myself.

@@chrismckerron3691 In these videos I'm only going to cover the "stand-out" units, unfortunately the Lady of Vines doesn't fall under that for me. The Dryad summon being reliant on the 2+, no bonus to cast, being a named character, and having a weak melee profile keeps the Lady of Vines out of the vast majority of competitive lists.
