Wood Elf is arguably the most efficient race that exists in Dominion. This is due to their unit powers increasing based on how much forest your dominion has. While this in itself is not anything special, WE units have no power cap, unlike other land-based races; in other words, the only maximum cap is 100% forest. Their variable units also have rather high starting powers compared to other land-based races, which makes them the cream of the crop. Unfortunately, depending on these extremely high land percentages to make their units worthwhile severely limits the variety of strategies that can be employed by this race, as well as making full round attacking extremely difficult.
