Particularly in the LA, flaming short bows aren't really an offensive weapon, they're a deterrent. They say, "I've got 12 volleys of flaming death waiting for you behind my walls. Perhaps you should look elsewhere." And Bogarus needs its neighbors looking elsewhere until ~year 4.

Agema was looking for an obvious troop tactic. 8g archers + flaming arrows seemed obvious to me.
