Archers are your standard long-range troops. Their lack of armour makes them one of the quickest units in the game, but in hand-to-hand combat, archers are virtually useless. They have a long firing range and are very effective against units that don’t wear any armour; units with metal armour present more of a challenge to them however. Still a high enough number of archers will make short work even out armoured units such as swordsmen and knights. If placed close to a brazier archers gain the ability to set pitch on fire.
