==Description==
There has always been a great bond of kinship between the Elves and the Great Eagles, stretching back to ancient times. That bond remains strong between the Wood Elves and the noble avians, and so many families of eagles choose to make their homes in the heights of the Grey Mountains, close by the borders of Athel Loren. On rare or desperate occasions, a Great Eagle may offer itself as a mount to a particularly trusted Glade Lord. This is a great honour in the eyes of the Wood Elves, for it is a true partnership of equals. Such a union forms the start of a great and enduring friendship that continues to bind both parties, even after death.

For Wood Elves, the speed and hit-run tactics of the Great Eagle fit right in. While infantry holds or some wild riders distract the enemy, the eagle can swoop in for the kill on an undefended unit. The eagle can be a valuable utility unit to have for its speed, flight, and fear. That being said, the eagle is not an amazing melee combatant and will struggle in a lengthy engagement. 
Great Eagles pair well with Hawk Riders, adding extra weight to their sneaky charges while benefiting from the disruption of additional models.
