If you ever have problems with arrows and reinforcements. Just make 16 unit stacks of nothing but archers. In the battle, you can just rotate spent archers out of the line as the enemy routs and sends in another wave.
I don't usually have enough archers to spare for that, and anyway I've noticed that as long as they just stand still the Arbalesters will last an entire engagement without being exhausted.
