Default Re: Attack Archers Question

Doh! That's what happens when you test something and then make some final changes and don't pay close attention to how those play out. You're absolutely correct in that the archers set to "fire archers" targeted the opposing archers since they were in range - not the decoy.

I also should have attached the setup file, not the result file, so that you could change the setup and try different options. I've attached a revised version that is pre-battle.

The interesting thing is if I place TC's archers out of range of Van's then both Van's "fire archers" group and "fire closest" group target the decoy. But as TC's archers get in range Van's "fire archers" group switches to them while the "fire closest" group still targets the decoy. But then, when TC's archers get closer than the decoy both of Van's archer groups switch to TC's archers. And that part is kind of strange to me as archer decoys are intended to take advantage of target lock so I'm not sure why they are switching targets as TC's archers get closer.
