Ordering Archers to Attach Enemy Archers ???
 

What happens if there are no enemy archers (or no enemy flyers, if "attack flyers" order was given)? Are my archers "smart" and know to default to attack closest?

Yes they switch to another target, usually closest.

You shouldn't order them to "attach archers" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif , as this will make the charge them to kill them in melee. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
Better order them to "fire at: archers". They will switch to another target ( : nearest) as soon as there is no more valid pre-set target, e.g. no archers, or all enemy archers routing.
