Sounds good so far. How strong will the Longbow unit be? Currently they appear very weak in the game! I might be able to help a little in the research department.

The longbow will be very much stronger than all the other bow units. When crossbows come, and they come very late in the game for most factions, they can however compete with the longbows in attack power, but not in a duel because the crossbows fire much more slowly due to their long reload time. Pavise crossbows, which will be even more rare and much more expensive, will be the only ones that can compete with longbows in a missile duel.

If you want to help with the research, feel free to post in the tech tree thread and other threads where we're still discussing. We'll give credits to all who helps us although you don't get mod team member status unless you ask for it and show that you're an active member.
