Ideal Elves

Cockenweits? Who are they?

In Ashan, the idea of elves is that they use the help of forest creatures; these are their allies, not pets, so no need for riders; let them be as they are.

Replace Ents with mushrooms?! No way!

Cockenweits again... No, we need to replace them. The current elven dragons are quite interesting, both in terms of their appearance and tactically; I wouldn't want to change them to something else.
In conclusion, I would say that the elves in the fifth game probably don't need to be changed, except perhaps for precise balancing, but that applies to everyone.
