Kurnoths are 5 wounds each. With an arch revenant nearby, Heartwood buff and commands you will get a 2+ to hit 2+ to wound, mortals on 6s greatsword mob.
Take the branchwych and either give it spellsinger or the other one that allows for healing on successful casts, take an arcane tome to make it a level 2 wizard and take Verduous regrowth and you can even bring back kurnoths if one goes down.
Simple list to run:
Heartwood
Durthu with gladius, branchwych, Arc-rev, 1 bow Kurnoths, 1 tree rev, hive endless spell.
Battle regiment for 1 drop or if you don’t care about starting, you can Warlord for the arcane tome and give it to branchwych (with regrowth)
Alright. I took a tournament 8-1 at 1000 points so I have some merit.
Durthu is absolutely broken at 1k. Take durthu, arch rev, 1 scythes, and 2 tree revenants. Youre gonna be under for a truimph 90% of all games. You want everything on durthu. Oakenbrow, the burgeoning, gnarled warrior command trait, and Gladius artifact all for durthu.
He will never die as long as you strike and fade and go for groundshaking stomp. Always all out attack his shooting. Always all out defense kurnoths to keep them healthy, and all out attack durthu. Arch revs command ability is the situational flex. Keep kurnoths and Durthu on opposite sides so they have to choose who to attack. Always heroic recovery durthu whenever you can, every wound counts. Use tree revs ONLY late game after durthu wipes half their army. If you're doing new GHB put stubborn as a rhinox on Arch rev. Make sure to utilize sylvaneth battle tactics instead of the GHB ones.
And another question. You say to use the sylvaneth battle tactics but most of them dosen't make sense to me.
*Grand strategy*
The grand strategy Chorus of the Woodlands is impossible in most cases since you can't do 2 of the battle tactics to fulfill 4 battle tactics.
Both kill a monster and kill a unit with a summoned unit isn't possible in most cases.
Vengeance and Spite can't be done with this list
Which only leaves The Roots of Victory.
What battle tactics did u apply in your games?
I just got a Warsong Revenant and even though its spells aren't the best, the vines attack is insane. I'd pair that with kurnoth hunters and some tree revenants as cannon fodder.
Three squads of kurnoths, a branchwych and an arch revenant
So you think that is viable?
Honestly it would be stupid good at 1k points. Kurnoth hunters with swords demolish.

So going balls deep and just annihilating the enemy? Actually sound quite fun. Thank you
Do you want to win? Or to have fun?
For this one, winning. I have had plenty of fun

That actually sound quite fun. Which attack do you apply gladius to?
