*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//AoS_Branchwych_ENG.pdf Branchwych]:''' (130pts) Aggressive support wizard.
**As long as she's taken at least one wound in damage, she gets 2 extra attacks on her scythe.
**Her spell Unleash Spites (5+) is a damaging pulse effecting all enemy units within 9". It works best against the more units that are in range - If there are only 1 or 2 target units in range, then arcane bolt will usually do more damage than the pulse, but it gets better against more units, of course. On average, you'll expect 1.11 mortal wounds per unit.
**In Skirmish, the pulse is extremely broken, as ''every'' model is a unit. So, get within range of the front line and suddenly every model is hit with rolling a ''minimum'' of 5 dice, giving mortal wounds on sixes. Most of those models are single wound chaff, because skirmish doesn't allow you to take any of the good stuff, and you've got a game winning massacre. Sadly that pulse is the only thing we've got going for ourselves in Skirmish.
**The oft whispered about ''Branchwych Bomb'' involves sticking her on a Balewind Vortex inside a mid to frontline wood, giving her Deadly Harvest, Spellsinger, and using whatever casting bonuses you can get hold of. Then sit back and cast both spells, spamming mortals out in 21" and 15" bubbles. In practice you're tying up far too much to get this off reliably. Just don't run crying when your 5 wound guy gets wiped out pronto after one round of this. Clearly hilarious if you can get it to work.
***It's possible to invest even more into this strategy by adding an Umbral Spellportal, but even that doesn't make it worthwhile.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//AoS_Spirit_of_Durthu_ENG.pdf Spirit of Durthu]:''' (370pts) This is <s> SPARTAAAAA</s> *ahem* supercharged Treelord. Note that as this isn't a named character you can take multiple, but the cost is going to hurt.  The Spirit of Durthu is a damage monster, with powerful shooting, terrifying melee and all the standard tricks of the vanilla Treelord.  A shooting attack that is basically the vanilla Treelord's Strangleroots on steroids, with higher range, more shots and higher damage per shot.  His sword is as terrifying as it looks, with constant damage 6 so long as he stays in good health and 1 bonus attacks for being near a wood.
**That damage table is a killer for him. Take six hits and that sword goes from dealing 6 to D6 damage. Do the math, and a block of Kurnoth will output a lower higher end, but similar average output and degrade slower. 
**While he lost the meager Bravery buff, he has gained two new abilities: a new Monstrous Rampage that makes an enemy fight last on a 3+ and the ability to teleport from being near one wood or overgrown terrain to another, letting you hop between key enemies.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//AoS_Treelord_Ancient_ENG.pdf Treelord Ancient]:''' (360pts). The swiss army knife Treelord.  If Durthu is a supercharged Treelord, then this is the slightly weaker but more useful version. Compare to a Vanilla Treelord, this guy has 1 less attack on its Sweeping Blows. This doesn't seem like much, but the drop from 4 to 3 attacks is actually quite drastic. And what does this old fella get in return? An extra 2 to its Bravery, 18" range on its strangle roots, gains a command ability and becoming a freakin' wizard!  His unique spell will do D3 damage to any enemy units on or around your woods. It's either a great deterrent to entering your woods or a great punishment if the opponent was dumb enough to actually do it. Even more useful now we are spitting out trees three at a time.  Once per battle he can unconditionally summon a new wood. This would make him an almost must take if he was less points. Note this is once per game, not once per Ancient per game, but he's still a good option.  
** If you teleport the Ancient to the wood, then next turn a 24" verdant blessing wood should give you all the range you need. 

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//AoS_Arch_Revenant_ENG.pdf Arch-Revenant]:''' (120pts) Force multiplier for the Kurnoths, 3.0 was kind to her.  No longer has to sacrifice her mount.  Has the best non-Behemoth Hero melee in Sylvaneth (which doesn't say much): three 2" 3+/3+/-2 Dmg 2 attacks with her glave and a single 4+/3+ Dmg D3 attack with her mount. More survivable than a Branchwych, with five wounds, a 4+ save.  Can adapt an offensive stance, which gives her +1 attack to her glaive or a defensive stance that gives her a 4+ ward save.  Automatically buffs Kurnoth Hunters within 12" of herself, allowing them to re-roll hit rolls of 1 (both melee and shooting).  Has a great command ability, adding 1 attack to each model's weapon in a unit within 9" (12" if the Arch-Revenant is your General). Combine this ability with alpha-striking unit of Tree-Revenants, or buff the hell out of Kurnoth Sword/Scythes - either way, it'll really hurt your opponent. Only works in the melee phase, so no buffing Kurnoth bows.  Keep her safe, and she'll reward your army for it.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/3_BR_Kragnos_Warscroll_Warsong_Revenant_ENG_2021.pdf Warsong Revenant]''' (305pts) Heavy support wizard introduced in Broken Realms.  Can cast twice, only unbind once and adds +1 to casting within 9" of a wood.  His personal spell is the same as the Branchwych's but with a different name.  Has a 12" bubble that adds +1 for friendly Sylvaneth bravery and -1 to any enemies within that range.  Less squishy than our usual heroes: 7 wounds, the standard 5+ save is boosted with a 4+ ward save and he could take Regrowth.  Fairly maneuverable too with 8" range and flies.  Attacks 5 times with rend at damage 2. Plus there's a 3" range.  Think of him as a budget Lady of Vines or a much pricier and tougher Branchwych (with bravery shenanigans thrown in), and you're good to go.
**Remember the oft talked about ''Branchwych bomb'' (see above), well now we have the ''Warsong bomb''. Give Spellsinger, get him near a wood or ideally ''within'' a big wood, prime with throne the turn before, then spam his spell at every enemy unit within 15" for an average of 3.333 mortals (assuming a single throne, with .6 for each addition throne). Boost with an addition D3 for everything with 9" from Deadly Harvest. Maybe throw in the umbral spellportal. Deadlier than the Branchwych bomb, but you're still making him a huge target and it's a lot of points/resources wrapped up to make this happen. He will survive a lot longer than the Wych though.
