I'm still very much against what you did to archery. Longbows and Crossbows already did their respective jobs well. A Longbowman was more expensive to train and much more devastating against at long range and when used against lightly armored people. 9 points armor piercing for a Longbow is completelyu inane, 14 points of non-armor penetrating damage conveys their purpose really well.

That's the part I don't get. While the power of many units is off (especially Horse Archers, who suck), the Shortbow, the Longbow, and the Crossbow all fit perfectly together relative to each other. Why give them a new and different job on the battlefield when they are already desirable and historical as is?
