Me again, what do you think of this?
HERO(ES)-
Noble, eternal kindred - 80, army general, leading Eternal Guard
Spellsinger, level 2, 2 dispel scrolls - 175, lore of athel loren
CORE UNIT(S)-
8 dryads - 96
10 glade guard - 120
6 glade riders - 144
SPECIAL UNIT(S)-
14 Eternal Guard, musician, standard bearer - 186
RARE UNIT(S)-
6 waywatchers - 144
TOTAL = 945
same tactics as the previous list, pretty much.

To me, waywatchers are a luxury, for large games when you can spare the points and the rare slot. At 1k they're a bit much. A great eagle would be a much better use of a rare unit.
You seem to have this impression (you mentioned charging in the front with them in the other list) that glade riders are good in combat. They're not. They're elves on horses. That gives them speed, and a 6+ save. Use the speed. Don't use them as a combat unit. In this army, you don't seem to have a combat unit. You have harassers, disrupters, a big sticking unit....
I'd say drop the waywatchers, get a great eagle and a small unit of wardancers. At least then you'd have the ability to take out something tough with a multitude of str4 attacks, or kb.

I'll tweak this army, when I've got the other one right.
