Archers are rightly feared for the casualties they can inflict, but they are vulnerable in hand-to-hand combat.

They are drawn from the peasant classes of all societies, as these are the people who need to be skilled hunters in order to survive. Learning to use a bow well is something that takes a lifetime and constant practice, and putting food on the table provides good practice.

They are best used to weaken enemy formations, or placed in a spot where they can retreat and find protection from other troops.
