Does this mean : when facing the enemy, fireing slightly to the right is more effective ? like this :

I'm asking this because sometimes you can't flank with your archers (no ha's - only slow foot archers, enemy has cav and you don't etc.). Many times it's too risky, takes too long or I just don't bother.
