For more general description of Wood Elves, see Wood-elves.
In the Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe the Wood Elves are the Elves who dwell in the enchanted forest of Athel Loren. Their ancestors were the High Elves who chose to stay in the forest when other High Elves chose to return to their island home of Ulthuan. The Wood Elves are resourceful masters of their sylvan home, for they have tamed the forest's wild beasts and befriended the ferocious Treemen and Dryads. Wood Elves are mighty warriors - Athel Loren has never been conquered.

Sixth Edition
The Wood Elves do not yet have an "Army Book" for the Sixth Edition of the Warhammer rules; its release is pending. There is a great deal of rumour associated with it, but at this time this is all speculation, mostly about a possible new race-specific Lore of Magic or modifications to the Wood Elven archery. The book is currently scheduled to be released in either June, July or August, varying by area.
