I don't know, I never really played a battle outside of siege where archers were too overpowered, they definitely had an effect, but I never experienced an issue where they would be considered "overpowered". I would be supportive of making strategus arrows more expensive or something, but I see no reason to force people to buy a single type of arrow that does -damage. If the archers are standing on a hill, why the fuck would you even get near it?
If you have some video showcasing the rape of all before them by archers, I would like to see it. This was one of the reasons why 2H stuck to siege battles in strategus.
It seems like a better solution would just be to have the battles have a mandatory end time. This is probably needed anyways to avoid 6 hour long fights.
Archers are the primary deterrent to 2H. Do you want Strategus to just become a 2Hfest like all the battle servers? They also are effective against cav if the cav can be kept at range, do you want strategus to become Cavfest?
