Discussion about Sylvan (Wood Elves).

Apparently, they are so attractive that the enemy simply can't resist. :)
But there are plenty of problems with them, whether you have them or the enemy does. However, being able to attack multiple enemies at once and without retaliation adds to their appeal, and you can even charm someone with a spell. Yes, they are weak, but you can use them to scatter enemies if you don't want to skip a turn.
