Archer army
Can you finish the game with warrior on hard with zero losses if your army consists of:
-hunters -repair droids -guard droids(target spell) -cannoneers -elfs from skills: -3 in quickdraw -3 in persuasion -3 in prayer from items: -artifact with 5% critical and initiative to dwarves, humans and elves -dagger of judgement(20% critical) -sniper set(20% critical) dwarf companion who further increases criticals to 100%(you also get criticals from achievements) Has anyone tried this? |

I think there's been some discussing this before on the forums although now it might be a bit more viable with some of the new items.
Anyhow if you're gonna try, goodluck! |

In the boss battles archer die like crazy. This is the biggest problem with them. They are waaaay too frail. It may be possible to do it on normal, since the bosses are generally low on health there, but on the higher difficulties, when a single mass attack kills something like 1/5 to 1/3 of the entire archer stack, things will look very grim.
In normal battles they rock. Hard. They are really, really great. However, if you want to complete the game with archers ONLY, the boss battles will be the biggest challenge.

well, bosses are rare anyway, you can always keep a reserve army in some castle, I was thinking archmages, knights, horsemen, paladins and inquisitors as second army(i will have very high moral and initiative for humans).

Well, all I can say is - get to the boss battles and see how many of your archers will die in the first mass attack. This is a good way to discover how your army will fare against them.
Know that the Spider webs your ranged units every time they attack for 2 turns. This means that if you shoot with all your archers, they will not be able to attack and will be immobile for 2 turns. Very inconvenient, to say the least Please keep in mind that I'm always analyzing from impossible difficulty point of view... I assume that on normal, an archer party may do really well against bosses, because they have less attack, less defense, and less health.
