Be sure to remember your special strikes/2h attacks paired up with your spears. The spears keep your fight value high and the 2h especially makes it much easier to wound, otherwise you might find yourself struggling with overwhelming odds.
Thanks for the tip guys!! That's really helpful to know. I have to remember that Elven swords aren't just any old swords and I have that in the back pocket along with the other rules! ^^ hehe. I hear sometimes Elves are great at winning fights but not so much at securing kills with the S3 so going two handed is a good option to have by the sounds of it. :)
