The bows of the Elves loosed upon them volley after volley, yet the Orcs poured forth in hordes unceasing, mounting the rising hills of their slain kindred, flinging themselves into the serried ranks of the West in a madness of terror; for hope of life and of escape had long left them.
Some among the Men of the Alliance sank to the ground weeping in terror, or stood blind and witless as their minds drowned in flness; for to them the coming of the Nazgul was as entrapment within a living nightmare.
And He slew Elves and Men at will as they fled in terror; the viscera of their broken bodies fell in thick sheets of red rain, and the laughter of Sauron was as the grinding together of iron mountains.

 SFSFW: Man o'War Page
The Dark Elves are en interesting concept, as they don't actually have ships but instead have fortresses towed by powerful sea dragons (a nice unusual touch I thought), whilst the Orcs have (almost) sea worthy craft armed with the inane usual OW Orc weaponry, whilst sporting such crass names as Bigchukka's, Drillakilla's.
Apart from the Elves who I don't like the designs for, I must say that the models are very good and the inclusion of plastic masts for all the vessels allows the gamer a fair degree of conversion possibility should they wish to go down this avenue.
As both the Elves and the Bretonnians continued to press home their attack on the hapless Slaanesh, the ‘Radiante’ retaliated, casting a pall of hellish radiance over the nearest Corsair, totally entrancing the crew.

They learned to speak before they were one year old; and in the same time they learned to walk and to dance, for their wills came soon to the mastery of their bodies.
Nonetheless there was less difference between the two Kindreds, Elves and Men, in early youth; and a man who watched elf-children at play might well have believed that they were the children of Men, of some fair and happy people.
For in their early days elf-children delighted still in the world about them, and the fire of their spirit had not yet consumed them, and the burden of memory was still light upon them.
