==Why play Eldritch Council?==

'''Pros'''
*One of the most magically inclined factions in the game alongside Seraphon and Tzeentch.
*Can use the Dragonhost warscroll battalion from the High Elves compendium if you bring enough dragons, letting you nuke an enemy for a potential '''4d6''' mortal wounds.
*Every hero can cast magic, with your cheapest hero able to make allied models reroll all hit and wound rolls. 
*More dragons than any other army in the game, looking at you Order Draconis...
*Swordmasters are one of the best 1 wound infantry in the game. 
*Play well both with and as allies. 
*Every one of your heroes is an expert mage.
*They're getting new things as of spring 2020, likely including Teclis himself.

'''Cons'''
*No allegiance abilities, meaning you'll be left lagging against the unique mechanics of other factions. 
*No dedicated Eldritch Council warscroll battalions
*Can be easily countered by magic-negating armies like Khorne (ESPECIALLY Khorne)
*No shooting beyond dragon breath (expensive) and magic (unreliable)
*Incredibly hero-focused army, and despite being bodyguards in the fluff Swordmasters have no way to protect them. You're going to get sniped. Look Out Sir! is your best friend. 
*Swordmasters are borderline anime. 
*No unique command abilities for any of your heroes. 
*Your army is now entirely out of production, sorry.
