    Default Battle Map question

    All,

    I am playing as the Scots and I have England attacking me. On the map there is a hill so I put all my units up there before the battle.

    How do I get my archers to fire upon the units but not move? I selected them and ordered an attack to some approaching units and they moved down the hill to attack. I tried guard and they still moved. How do I get to just sit up there and fire?

    Thx

    Just leave your archers on fire at will mode, do not tell them to attack any enemy unit until they've started firing on their own. Then you can tell them to attack specific units within range without them moving.

    If you want to target a specific unit wait until the bow is green (when you move your cursor over the enemy). If you don't want to bother with that just leave "Fire at will" on.

    There seems to be a bug where some ranged units will move regardless of being in range, tough. I haven't experienced it.
