Games Workshop Warhammer The Old World Wood Elf Realms Glade Guard 32-Miniature Plastic Kit

The Games Workshop Warhammer: The Old World Wood Elf Realms Glade Guard is a comprehensive plastic miniature kit for tabletop wargaming. It allows players to construct a core unit of 32 Wood Elf archers, known as Glade Guard, who are essential to any army from the mystical forest realm of Athel Loren. These miniatures represent highly skilled elves trained from youth in the use of the Asrai longbow, making them formidable ranged combatants on the battlefield. The set is designed for use with the Warhammer: The Old World game system, where they form the backbone of a Wood Elf force, capable of unleashing volleys of arrows from a distance. The kit is notable for its high level of customisation and versatility. It contains 400 individual plastic components, enabling the assembly of the 32 miniatures with a variety of options. The unit can be built as one large block of archers or divided into two smaller units of 16. Each potential unit can include an optional champion (who can be armed with either a longbow or a sword), a standard bearer with a choice of two banner toppers, and a musician. The components, including heads, legs, torsos, capes, and weapons, are fully interchangeable across all the miniatures, allowing for significant personalisation and variety within the ranks. The kit also includes 32 Citadel 25mm square bases. The miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly, typically using plastic glue and hobby paints. This product is ideally suited for hobbyists and gamers invested in the Warhammer: The Old World setting, particularly those collecting a Wood Elf Realms army. The Glade Guard are a fundamental troop choice, making this kit a practical and efficient way to build a substantial portion of an army. The alternative build option to create Deepwood Scouts—a skirmishing unit—adds tactical flexibility. It fits into the hobby routine of modelling, painting, and gaming, offering a rewarding project that results in a visually cohesive and effective tabletop unit ready for strategic play.
