Re: AI Archers
You can use marble warriors instead. Still takes a bit of researching to get to though. And even wooden warriors will bring many units up above 18 protection. You can also try things like battle fortune. You should be able to have any of these things (or weapons of sharpness) by sometime in year 3. I don't think anything I mentioned really needs uber mages either. The biggest spells I've mentioned only require a native level 2 caster with a booster or two.
I'm not sure why you need shieldless warriors to use arrow fend with. Shielded warriors gain just as much benefit as the unshielded. Also, if you're playing with EDM creatures, a4 = summonable a2 casters to cast your arrow fends for you.
