However, Witch Elves are not Core, and have no save, while the Corsairs have a basic 5+ in combat, and 4+ against everything else.
That's why corsairs are the supreme all rounder troops in our army.
People often compare them with witch elves because they cost the same number of points, have extra hand weapons and are usually frenzied.
BUT they have slighty different roles. Corsairs are be a nasty, hard hitting unit that can also soak up A LOT of punishmen, whereas Witch Elves are meant to be a very very mean combat unit, but one which is more fragile and specialist.
