==On The Tabletop== Sisters of Twilight are arguably one of the best options the Wood Elves have. Toughness 4, can ride either a Giant Eagle or a fucking Dragon (both have their merits), and unless both are killed in the same turn they both return back to life at full Wounds at the end of the Shooting Phase. Naestra shoots like a fucking bolt thrower with a bonus of healing their mount when she shoots something and Arahan's machinegun style shots are Poisoned. Naestra deals more damage to Destruction enemies, Arahan deals more to Order enemies (no bonus against Neutral). This is on top of the usual statline for Elves including Leadership 9, Always Strikes First, Initiative 7, Ballistic Skill/Weapon Skill 6. Think the above isn't enough to justify taking them? Here's what happens when you take them on their Eagle. You stick them near Warhawk Riders for a 4+ Look Out Sir! roll. Still not enough? Cannons can't target them and what is hit in a multi-model profile is randomized (probably not correct), so if only one of the two twins was blown to pink mist all over her sister then they'll shrug it off as she magically reforms the second the enemy stops shooting, making it a total waste of cannonball. On the other hand you can make them sniper bait and pay through the teeth for the Dragon, and what you get is a fucking Dragon that can and will eat Units and regain Wounds like a vampire when Naestra fwips something. The only real drawback is that if their mount dies, they have to stay together. But that's not exactly a deal breaker to say the least. Taking them on Gwindalor (the Eagle) will set you back 275 points, something very doable for a great option. Ceithin-Har brings them up to 495, the same amount that High Elves pay for [[Tyrion]] (needless to say, you'd be getting the MUCH better deal). Due to the prevelance of artillery (especially cannons) in the game, Gwin is generally the safer option due to survivability but Ceith is the biggest bruiser available. The only problem is that the kit comes only with Ceithin-Har, meaning you'll need to obtain a model for Gwindalor separately. Most players looked to the superior sculpt from The Hobbit for the Giant Eagles and simply plop the two sisters on its back. In Age of Sigmar, many MANY models and entire races were [[Sqatted]] including the model for the Sisters of Twilight which sold out very quickly once they were moved to the Last Chance section. Fortunately, its extremely easy to obtain (*Cough* [[Reaper Miniatures|Reaper Bones]] *Cough*) Dragon models to put two Elf women carrying bows on, with a small greenstuff halfmask on each if you're so inclined.
