    Default STOP MAKING BALLISTAS: They die to archers..

    Okay so why is everyone making ballistas? Archers are cheaper to make and to keep...

    I bet 10,000 archers can whipe out 2000 ballista on 1v1 on battle.. So if i have 80,000 archers and somene has 20,000 ballista, the ballista will die.. Its a joke, why do people keep making ballistas?

    They should just stop..

    well 10,000 vs 2000 isn't so fair now is it? also Bala's are used for fort def mainly and those that do make it don't use just balista as for your 80k archers wootness to you but the same can be said about that each unit has it's own weakness your 80k archers would wipe out 20,000 bala's hum nice math there you outnumber the balas 1 to 4. needless to say send 80k archers vs 80k pike men or swordsmen and see how they fan out assuming that both have maxed level 10 IW,MT and Arch researched

    I just did 1000 archers against 1000 Balista in the Exercise. 1000 archers died and only 23 Balista died. huh.

    Edit: In fact it took exactly 3184 archers to kill 1000 Balista. 3164 archers died.

    that sim in your rally point isn't much use. it only seems to take into account the range of a unit.

    It tells you exactly what will happed if everything else is equal. He would have to have a hero that is about 100 levels above mine and somehow get above archery level 10 to stand a chance 1 on 1 against my balista.

    Except he said 10k archers vs. 2k ballistae. Where did you get the 1k vs. 1k from?

    I think I have had too much caffiene today, couldn't seperate what he said

    If you really want to be effective you need to have a good combo of stuff anyway. The main reason to have balista is to increase your range and for NPC towns.
