Special Ability: Shoot While Adjacent[edit | hide]
The special ability of Steel Elves is similar to the effect given by 
Bow of the Sharpshooter, but with a slight difference: the former can only make melee attacks against enemy creatures adjacent to them and cannot perform ranged attacks, thus provoking retaliation; whereas the latter enables ranged attacks without retaliation.

User Commentary
Snow Elves are good tier 3 units. They're good shooters, quite tough and have no Melee penalty. The only downside is them having only 4 shots.
Steel Elves are even better, having twice as many shots and being able to shoot even when blocked by enemy units.
Combat tactics:
- It's best to use them with the Mountain Rams during the early game, with the Elves dealing primary damage as shooters, and the Rams finishing the wounded enemies or going for their shooters.
- Also, make sure to not prolong combat for too long or shoot from too far, since they have relatively few shots. Or better buy an Ammo Cart.
- When having Jotunns, you may order the Steel Elves to wait, then teleport the Elves behind the enemy castle walls to attack enemy units at close range. Since they neither can be blocked by enemy units, nor have melee penalty, they'll shoot freely at enemies, while being close enough for full damage shots.
