Forest Encounter: Test-Fire

Forest Encounter: Test-Fire is a unique Forest Encounter dilemma for the Heralds of Ariel faction, part of the Wood Elves race, introduced in Total War Warhammer II The Twisted and the Twilight DLC.
The player can chose to be able to use two uncommon army active abilities, Sartosa Grapeshot and Zhufbar 42 Pounders, in all armies for a few turns, spend some money and fight a Skaven enemy, or face a Vampire Coast enemy. Regardless of the choice, the forest health of a random owned forest settlement will increase by a moderate amount.
Alternatively, the player can decide to leave and return later to make a decision.
==In-game description==
Many years ago, the Skaven of Clan Pestilens swarmed these pools. At the instigation of Clan Moulder, they have returned. A vast army of Plague Monks, backed by a swarm of chittering rats, threatens to descend and sully the sacred waters. But an unusual source of aid appears: a Vampire pirate, looking to test some new artillery, is willing to direct his guns at the Skaven - for a price, of course.However, if you do not hire the pirate, he mist instead chose to offer his arms to the Skaven.
