    Default LongBows and Archers

    Well as you know English longbows where special for their ability to use their
    bows in that matter : they shoot 1 arrow up then quickly reload and shot another one straight that way they double their effectiveness
    ( and they carry lots of ammo ).
    in this game , shotting high occurs when the archers don't have straight eye sight to enemy and it causes the units to miss more...
    I think that shotting high should be less effective to all archer units except English longbows. also they should reload faster and shot straight arrows after it
    that will be a one wave and so on.
    also after doing some research on that matter i found out that archers are most
    effective when they have small hight advantage and they spread in a long line.
    if archers are placed at a to much high ground they will shoot to high and miss
    and therefor when you fighting with archers on a cliff they wont get advantage as they need to.
    from a plain archers only in the front line will get the best shots.
    i think CA needs to give the archers the ability to spread that way :

    X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X
    -X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X

    you cant spread archers to one line so this way both lines will get good shots
    like in the start of lord of the ring the first movie with the elvish archers :D.
    that way archers could be used better , also they need to fix the hight problem and the walls problem ... archers in front line on walls should get clear shots.
