Bowmen are the standard Foot Archers of the Ancient Age, trained at the Barracks.
Overview[]
Being the first standard Foot Archers, Bowmen are the most adequate when fending off an Ancient Age rush, for they have the longest range, are strong against Heavy Infantry, and make excellent garrisons, as Foot Archers in general increase a building's garrison power more than other unit types. However, defending against a raid is another matter, for these are usually carried out by Light Infantry, which will make short work of them.
