Not much variety in those armies, it was hordes of crossbows, backed by a few "heavy" hobbits, with the Burgmeisters and "big" mages - later, Fire then Air mages for Flaming Arrows and Wind Guide, but by then I was buying 3-resource indy Archers instead

I wish there were indy archers with 2 strat move. Well, there are those Woodsmen, but I mean semi-armored ones - ringmail is about as low as you can go and have a decent chance of surviving a flock of arrows.

Once again, I'm impressed by the indy plate cuirass archers... resource expensive... but wow, they're practically immune to enemy shortbows. I never buy indy res-3 archers unless I have no other choice.
