How to Build High Elf Armies | Total War Warhammer 2 

What's your favourite High Elf unit?

It’s hard to go wrong when building the high elf armies. Decent comps for new players, maybe switch out lions for heavy cav tho. Doom stacking phoenixes is always fun too.

4:00 I would go with Silverhelms or even Titanrocks over lions because they don't die in three seconds if you forget about them, either that or Mournfangs if you have them.

If you manage to find a Resistant Handmaiden, you can make a Sisters of Avelorn doomstack. They become better melee than _Lothern Sea Guard_ if you spec into it. You can manage a stack of 16 Sisters and just a Noble, a Handmaiden, a Lord and Wizard (Net of Amyntok & brawling buff) If you want to add variety, a pair of Dragon Princes to countercharge cav or a few Treemen to stall enemies works fine. But the above stack _will_ mince anything short of enemy doomstacks, for which you can bring any kind of reinforcing or garrison army.

Love High Elves! One of my fave factions, so strong at everything! Great Vid dude, late game yeah they are SO powerful! That was a badass looking army. MY fave units are probably Silverin and Phoenix Guard in a big defensive line with Sisters of Avelorn behind. :)

Excellent list but I only noticed 1 mistake -> you are lacking 1 hero for end game and with the TW Warhammer formula, heroes are everything. You absolutely need a mage, noble, AND melee specialist (usually your Lord) per army. Apart from giving you insane buffs for your army which could be the difference between a decisive or pyrrhic victory, you are also going to get a ton of bonuses outside of battle -> replenishment, trade, influence, mount, and more which compounds exceptionally well in the late game. Heroes are also the 3 strongest units in your entire army. Also I would drop the eagle claw. They are a solid unit but I'd rather just save the building slot on something economy related and rock an extra 4 sisters of Avalon instead.

Arcane phoenix is one of the best looking models in the game imo 👌

I was told LSG shielded front line and as many Sisters as I can stack would do the trick

Interesting your formation looks a lot like mine. Everyone else was doing this diamond archer formation with 5 line troops...needless to say it didnt work and i find myself here. Really good video!

I'd go for a princess as a lord and a life mage, not sure what shadows brings that better.

Would recommend the mods for HE - so much fun with Lion Riders and many frontline options.

I was just looking for exactly this video format! Thank you!

Great video! Please do for all races, I would love one on the dark elves and skaven as well :)

Also this is surprisingly similar to my high elf faction army, 100% love this channel

Ik everyone else is on 3 but, love your videos. Definitely fun builds and very solid

Im in the kampaign have no idea how to biuld the swart master and also not how to biuld the phönix or the bows from lategame.

How do you access that unit viewer thing at 1:04?

Man, I'm just starting this game and many of these units are not available to, I'm playing with Tyrion. I can't find Silverin Guards, Nobles, Rangers, War Lions of Chrace, and so on....confusing as sh*t

Am i the only one Running 10 Spearman and 10 Archers from start til end... And its Cheap to replace and Its actually good. Just use Spear as a Wall and just use 10 archers to Take out 1 Unit at Once. if the General gets Close all the Missile dmg will Kill it withhin seconds and the enemy will Run

I’d personally take a lore master instead of a second spell caster but I like the rest of the comp for the end game

what difficulty do you play on?

How do you get rangers? Is it a dlc or a certain faction?

I'm playing Teclis vortex and was wondering how to get this Silver Guards and Lions unit, and I found I was missing one HE dlc... Good it was Christmas discount, so fixed now :) Restarted campaign because now can also have Phoenix mount for Teclis.

Why does Tyrion seem so terrible in campaign?

Sisters of Avalorn also do well in melee, they should probably get a buff

One tip for high elf armies, never ever even think about recruiting White Lions of Chrace. They are trash and will lose to dark elf spearmen.

I see that you only have 6 melee units, idk bout you but since warhammer 1 ai tend to outnumber player, and im using 8 to 10 melee units sometimes its not enough, high elves artillery is the stupidest artillery in any warhammer and imma HE main so idk how you survive campaign with that amount of range unit it doesnt make any sense but good vid btw

me with a stack of half LSG(S) and half averlorn sis ;)

Comment For Algorithm

Great content. You deserve more subscribers, if you'd just talk slower!!

Warhammer 2? Lol kinda late

Mid game units are trash, mostly, in my opinion. I usually keep my early game armies until I can field Sisters of Avelorn, Dragons and Swordmasters of Hoeth.
