    30 arrows each that is...which comes out to 30 arrows = 1 dead legionarie...

    Remeber there is 2400 arrows shot if there is 80 archers with 30 arrows each.

    Even if we assume 3/4 of the arrows miss, its still 7.5 arrows hitting a single legionnaire...even with all the armor, don't you think one might sneak through and go through your nose?

    I suggest increasing archer power, but reducing ammo to 20-25.

    I can edit the file later...but I first have to finish my mod.
