For other unit rosters, see unit roster.

Wood Elves Wood Elves are the ranged specialists, having access to some of the most powerful and deadliest missile units in the game, several of which are able to shoot while invisible, moving, or both. This is not to say their roster is lacking in other departments: as well as elite, highly damaging infantry, they also have some very good cavalry options and durable monsters/monstrous infantry which can act as anvil and shield. Then there's a diverse array of magic which provides them healing, summons and AoE damage. It all adds up to a micro-intensive but devastatingly effective roster, so long as you can make up for the lack of artillery and armor.

Wood Elves require the Realm of the Wood Elves DLC to be playable, with The Twisted and the Twilight DLC adding several units to their roster.
