Archers

Whilst mulling about all the fancy updates that we get on occasion, perhaps we could make archers not SO STINKIN' STUPID!!

Yes, I am aware that my troops are not always going to go where I would like them to go. However, archers seem to be the absolute worst culprit.

1) You surround a barb king with archers to take him out, archers shoot at everything BUT the barb king
2) Hole in the wall 10 spaces north - archers shoot at the wall right in front of them (while being attacked)
3) On defense, archers fire at the least immediate threat
4) Place archers right as close as possible to target you want them to take and they turn around a go after a builder hut
5) When you want them to stay together they split up
6) When you want them to split up they stay together

They are dressed as elves, you might think they would have elvish intelligence

For this reason I suggest we must control our troops like boom beach.
