After much tinkering and several games of reworking the list.. This seems to be the best I have come up with. I'm bit worried about not having any real dedicated unit for taking out enemy mages and warmachine crews. Also with only one level 2 mage and no Rings of Corin or Fury, do you think ill have issues getting spells off,(though it really depends on the army I'm facing)?

Anyway any thoughts/suggestions/comments would be much appreciated. Thanks!:yes:

Prince this guy needs the guardian phoenix. A 3+armor save isn't that great and there are too many heros with no armor save weapons-armor of gods
-pure of heart
-swordmaster

Commander- DA, Shield watch out for cannonballs, dragon ogres, tyrants and everything else str7-Tiranoc Chariot
-Blade of Sea Gold

Mage- Level 2, Mounted on an Elven Steed make this guy a scroll caddy and see if you can add another. He won't get a single spell off at this point level.-Channeler
-Seer

do you play a lot of fear causing armies in your locale? It seems as though that what's you built this for. The 8 strong silver helms with full command seem like a waste. They will never break anything by themselves and you've only got 2 chariots (which can get blownup easily) I would put them down in 5strong with musician. You could probably stretch and get 3 of these units or get 4 chariots, guardian phoenix with the extra points. I still think you may need some more magic defense too. At this point level if you run up against anything moderately magic heavy, he'll have his way with you after turn 1-2 depending on who gets the first go. You don't move that fast with the foot troops.

I have a game against Ogres tomorrow, if the plans hold. Hopefully this more balanced list will works well.

If you have anymore tips or comments you would like to make, I'd love to hear them. Thanks again!

The only thing that bothers me is that lion standard. If you put your prince in with the swordmasters, then you're testing leadership on a ten, which is hard to fail (i've done a hundred times, but the odds are against me) If you can pony up another 25 pts (drop 2 phoenix guard) then you could get the banner of sorcery - that will make your average magic phase really awesome all of a sudden. The extra power dice is what makes high elf magic really sweet (that, and the +1 to dispel)
