Ranged units in city assaults

[R'as al Ghul]

I set my archers up in two lines at right angles to each other both looking through the gate or gap the enemy is guarding. They will shoot some and the enemy has been backing off.

Good tip. I'll try that one tonight.

I have had 1 problem in a seige. I had 1 unit of hastati and 1 general sitting outside on the left flank. No matter where I put the infantry they were getting shot by someone (I lost between 20 and 30 men to that fire). I never found out who was shooting, but the enemy had 2 men left over in the end battle report. They are the only forces I have had killed outside during a seige.

Actually those little towers of the wooden palisade shoot at you. It's not much and I hardly noticed it the first time but they shoot.
