march and shoot

WE can move and shoot without penalty.
How does this work with marching? can they march and shoot without penalty....can they march and shoot with a -1 penalty for moving or cant they march and shoot at all...

Page 38 in the rule book... you cannot march shoot, even us wood elves ;)
And to be clear, it is a -1 to hit penalty for moving we get to ignore. All other penalties for shooting we have to consider though.

Actually, I'm fairly sure skirmishers like scouts and waywatchers can match and shoot, and being wood elves, there's no penalty to the shots.

Skirmishers and Fast Cavalry can march and shoot, so Glade Riders, Scouts, Waywatchers and whatnot can all march and shoot with no penalty. Glade Guard are stuck with their basic movement and then shooting, though.

Basically every unit in the Wood Elf list that can shoot except Glade Guard and characters have either the Skirmishers or Fast Cavalry rule which allows them to march and shoot. The Wood Elf 'Asrai Archery' rule gives the ability to move and shoot without penalty, which then applies to any kind of movement, including regular moves or marching. Thus we have:

Every unit except Glade Guard and characters can march and shoot without penalty, but Glade Guard and characters can only regular move and shoot without penalty. If characters join a Skirmishing unit or ride an Elven Steed (to gain Fast Cavalry status), then they too can march and shoot.
