Why play Sylvaneth

  • Because nothing is more humiliating than being defeated by a tree:

Warscrolls

Heroes

  • Branchwraith: A very weak. But VERY essential part of your sylvaneth army. As a hero she sports a very meh stat wheel with the exception of her above average movement speed (7"). Her Melee will offer only token resistance to opponents. SO KEEP HER OUT OF COMBAT. She is not an overly powerful spellcaster at first glance but comes into her own as THE support character of the Sylvanth. Firstly she has the ability to "Summon"(Although the word 'summon' hasent been used if that matters to you) 2D6 Dryads. HOWEVER. These can only be spawned in a Sylvaneth Wyldwood which is a whole other thing . . .. If you have any sense you will keep this crazy looking plant lady in or near a wyldwood churning out dryads. being in the forest also grants her a -1 to all hits made against her. She also effects Treekin as they can re roll hits when a Sylvaneth hero is around(The only other one being Durthu) and also grant the regrowth spell which lets the branchwraith heal them. To sum up its always a good idea to have ATLEAST 1 of these around more if you can but just keep her close to a wyldwood or else give her a bodyguard unit (Treekin work well as they are large enough to block line of sight)
