Woods

Scouts are Wood Elves and therefore suffer no movement penalties for moving through woods.

Skirmish

Wood Elf Scouts can skirmish if you wish - see the rules for skirmishing.

Special Deployment

Wood Elf Scouts may be positioned on the table once both sides have completed their deployment. You can place the Scouts anywhere within their side's normal deployment zone, or you can place them anywhere else on the table that is out of sight of any enemy and not within the enemy player's deployment zone. A good place is on the flanks, behind woods or concealed by hills.
