Glade Riders or Wild Riders?

[Arguleon Veq]

I really can't see much of a point in Glade Riders when we have access to Wild Riders. Other than an Asrai force.

Your paying a few more points for a far more dangerous unit and only losing a couple of bow shots that at best are going to kill a single model a turn.

What do you reckon?

Well, honestly, they both do different jobs. Wild Riders are our Heavy Calvary equivalent, and while can deal more damage, are also more expensive, and lack ranged weaponry.

Our Glade Riders, on the other hand, are cheaper, provide harassment to war machines, lone mages and characters, and small units of skirmishers. Most basic troops cannot catch them, as they can fire 360º, and still move 18" a turn. They can also charge, fairly effectively, in a pinch, or can support a flank for charging Dryads or Wardancers.
