We will actually change archery in strategus with WSE:
a lot lower accuracy,
a lot higher speed,
every person next to you with a shield gives you +1 shield skill, up to +6
are you trolling? not only would that make archery less fun to play, it would make it even less fun to play against, and it's already incredibly frustrating, dude
lower accuracy means archers can't actually target people and get kills on guys they know are wounded, decreasing fun
higher speed means even MORE ranged spam (all pierce because hurr lets make it so bodkins make all bows pierce im sure that won't be op) decreasing fun on the ground
and the shield skill thing just means a shitload of shieldwall camping another not-fun gameplay aspect, boy i sure love standing in one shieldwall looking at another while archers fuck around
