Eternal Guard

are a melee infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer with Realm of The Wood Elves.
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Selathoi Gallery
==Description==
Through the long Winter months, the forest of Athel Loren is at its lowest ebb, made dormant and vulnerable by the cycle of the seasons. The Treemen slumber, and even the normally vigorous Dryads are sluggish and slow. During this time, guardianship of the most sacred of places falls to the Eternal Guard, sons and daughters of Athel Loren's noble houses. Each Eternal Guard is a formidable foe in her own right, trained to a pinnacle of skill that other races cannot easily match. When assembled in numbers, they form a phalanx, their spears thrusting and cutting with a graceful yet disciplined efficiency. The Eternal Guard themselves refer to such a place as a "fortress of boughs". They face the enemy with feet planted firmly upon their chosen ground, shields braced against attacks and the line of spears rippling as their leaf-shaped blades dart forward to kill.
==Attributes==
* Spear Infantry
==Strategy==
Pretty darn good for tier one spearelves. Good MA/MD, a decent amount of armor (HE's need to step up) , and really good AP damage. Bad news is their small model count and lack of shields make them somewhat fragile, but for their cost you can't fault them too much. The shielded version is much better though.
