[QUOTE="Sixchan, post: 853796, member: 9189"] Lately, I've been feeling that there's only three kinds of elf worth using. Drow, as your big evil evil elfy evil race, Wood Elves, because I like the elves of old, with their parties, and their songs, and their naked fireside dances...naked fireside dances...mmm...oh, um...got a little carried away there. And a slightly more expansionist version and just a little less on the not so nice to other races side for sun elves coupled with a few hundred ships, and voila! Instant Imperialism! This is, IMO, a problem with sun elves. They seen to be a lot more isolationist, rather than expansive as they once were. Elves don't engage in the perry short wars of man, but why not? Take some Sun Elves out of their homes, put them in a self sufficient city, and point them in the direction of the barbarians. Elves always seem to be one of these "minority races". Which I find strange. I mean, if you were an elven King, Humans are still in the stone age, and there's all this land to conquesr, you'd head straight for it, right? But how often do we see Elven empires of the scale of Rome or Britain? Not too often, and I think this should be the little Niche for Sun Elves. And of course, since they're civilising the barbarians, that makes them LG, right? [/QUOTE]
