Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness Hints

Elven Archer

  • The Elven forces have some definite strengths, and some definite weaknesses. The best thing about Archers is that they shoot arrows that can attack units on land, sea, and air.  A single-file line of about 6 to 9 Archers makes a good defense, because they can usually kill enemies before they can even reach the Archer line.  They start off fairly weak, so make sure you upgrade them as soon as possible.  They have NO armor, so you should usually guard your archers with a couple of Knights or Footman.
