 Comment by '''Dreadnough''': Loyalists. They have a great core with versatile Spearman and fast Cavalry. Depending on the situation they can add highly specialised units such as Heavy Infantry, Mages, Mermen and Horseman. Finally their fencers can slip through enemy ranks and enable breakthroughs or disrupt the enemy's movement. As a lawful faction, they depend very much on the time of day, which results in dynamic unit movement.
-Comment by '''patience_reloaded''': Undead due to their reliability when used correctly: Ghosts are very hard for most normal units (especially melee ones) to kill quick, most of the faction is poison-resistant, and due to having fixed traits, you know exactly what you get when you recruit them.
+<div class="thumb tleft">https://units.wesnoth.org/1.15/pics/core%24images%24units%24elves-wood%24archer.png</div>Comment by '''ForestDragon''': Rebels. Well, female elves are certainly quite attractive. For example, the marksman line. Or Elvish lady.
-Comment by '''Computer_player''': I love dunefolk because they bring something different to the table and out of the factions closest to being mainlined, they are the one with the most work done. I really like the dynamic of the Dunefolk (Khalifate long ago) faction, however I am waiting to play Dunefolk proper with the next stable version.
+<div class="thumb tleft">https://units.wesnoth.org/1.15/pics/core%24images%24units%24orcs%24grunt.png</div>Comment by '''Tezereth''': Northerners are pretty good for zone control, as the grunt cost only 12. Which means you can have a lot of them, or recruit some to quickly protect a unit behind a castle. Grunt have a big power to easily defend themselves. Archer have both pierce and fire, troll have regen, so they can hold unit that cannot deal big damage for several turn. Assassin have poison, but also an incredible dodge, which can easily bother enemy. Finally, goblin rider can move better in terrain than other faction horseman, and don't have weakness too, they just lack a bit of power. We don't talk about the goblins here.
