 Tactics against High Elves
Much of the trick of beating High Elf armies is beating the RBT's, which is easier said than done since they are in the top 5 of the best items for their points (together with Beastmen, Harpies and Manticores).
Earthshaker cannons and The Tempest (high magic spell) are great against High Elves since they rely on their skill with missiles and fast move to take the fight to the enemy (not to mention that The Tempest will blast their Chariots and RBT's to smithereens).
The Blunderbusses are usually not worth to bring along against High Elves (though a small regiment of five in front of every other Chaos Dwarf regiment is good: stand and shoot and then the unit behind gets to charge the Elves) because of their short range.

 Wood Elves or Lizardmen or High Elves? - WarSeer Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
But i will say one thing about "bang for Buck"...the High Elves attract a lot of criticism for being a bit poor, the Lizzys (i think) look a very competent army and most people probably don't have the woodies yet so its perhaps too early to comment.
high elves can be a very effective army if used properly however they are very hard to use as many of their core units are over priced.
Wood elves, having read the new army book, are a VERY nice army, not great toughness overall but they make up for it with all their abilities and huge diversity of units.
