Friends and I regularly play 40k and one mentioned recently getting into Warhammer, he said he was considering skaven and since High Elves have always seemed kind of cool I said if he wanted to get into it, I'd go halves on the starter set with him. But it's been about 10 years since I was into Warhammer so I have no idea how it goes down these days.
I see warhammer is in 8th edition but as far as I could tell (please correct me if i'm wrong) none of the army books are in 8th yet, would it be worth waiting for a couple of them to come out? How do High Elves compete?
Are they still powerful magically? I always preferred fielding multiple units of spearmen, because they look badass, with just a couple of squads of swordmasters or whatever. Would playing like that nerf me? Thanks dakka.
Kinski Spricht Werke Der Weltliteratur Rar Extractor. Welcome back to Fantasy As far as your questions, let's see. Nah, most of the codexes with a few exceptions (Wood Elves) are still quite fine in 8th edition. When 8th came out, all of the races got a pretty extensive FAQ to modernize them until a new codex for each race was made. You'll be fine there.
High Elves are still an excellent army. They have a great mixture of melee power (Swordmasters, Phoenix Guard) and magic. And yes, they have very strong magic still, arguably the best in 8th, or certainly up there in terms of magical strength and flexibility. Spearmen blocks work fine still, though for durability you will want to have deeper units, rather than wider. Ranked infantry are exceptionally powerful in 8th edition as well, so you'll be very well served by a couple blocks of spearmen, supported by magic or elite combat units.
