Default Re: Attack Archers Question

Allow me to give an example. I have a leader with Shielded Infantry archers and halberd infantry.
Now, if I want to create a decoy for Target Archers troops can I

A) Create 3 squads, a Halberd squad, an Archer squad and a decoy squad with both shield and a few archers that acts as a decoy to units targeting both closets and archers.

B) Create 4 squads, A Halberd Squad, an Archer squad and a decoy shield squad for those targeting closet and a decoy archer squad for those targeting archers.

Either will work. See attached game for option A attracting fire from both archers set to fire closest and archers set to fire on archers.

I see, not all the fire was directed at the composite unit though but a lot of it was. Thanks, I think that might help a lot in a few game turns.

Thank you for your help.
