Default Re: What\'s the best unit for Flaming Arrows?

Flaming arrows adds 6 points of AP fire damage in addition to the missile itself. The fire damage is magical, missile is not. So the missiles won't get the +2 bonus you get from using magical ranged weapons (the bonus doesn't add to precision, but helps getting a hit any way; check manual for details). However, at leat poison bows' poison effect is applied even when the arrows hit. If it works the same way for Flaming Arrows, the fire damage always hits. It's a bug, even if it only affects poison archers.
