    No, I believe it's rather that the javelineer acts like archers do on elephants. Even if the chariot is engaged in melee, he will look for targets for his javelins, provided he has fire at will turned on. Skirmish mode is automatically turned off when you order units into melee.

    Slingers are great for sieges, as the enemy sallies through the gate you can simply sic five to seven units of slingers on the unit coming out, and it gets cut down, repeat with every unit that sallies out until out of ammo, and by then a quick swordsman blitz will rout the enemy, then you win.

    Works for every city.

    Plus slingers are cheap, and a practice field ups their attack rating. The Briton Shortswordsmen are also good units to simply throw around in hordes, set them to 'fire at will' and a good quarter of your enemies will be killed of before impact. The axemen are the best for contending with 'civilised' troops, and they can handily kill off the heavier Irish units.
