Default Re: Gileadite Archers

I don't quite follow. MA Shinuyama has some Dai Bakemonos with longbows (less damage than Gileadite bows). Is that what you mean? Slightly better precision (+1) than Gileadite Archers, slightly less resource cost, significantly less gold cost (45 -> 30), half as many hit points, better mapmove.

But regardless, I think Ashdod is awesome enough already, and the Gileadite Archer has a niche. If the devs increased Gileadite archer precision on the grounds that e.g. long-lived giant races have more time to practice archery, I'd be okay with it, but I would not do so myself because I'm not sure it's thematic.
