    Exclamation scouts-vs-archers part 2

    so in my last post i was trying to look at which one is better scouts or archers
    but lets look at them from a differt stand pointarchers tend to overpower
    the foe and is effictive in this stage of battle and leves nothing left of the army that got in its way
    but scouts do the opposite they tend to go for the strong part and weeken it
    tell there nothing leftso what i see is that we need both of them to make a
    great army to win and not lose and do dfeat all of our foes so that what i think whats your thoght on it

    its not just about archers and scouts
    every troop has a reason (even workers) in the wave you send
    now instead of makin a thread out of it try askin the members on here or in your alliance
    i know it seems cool makin a thread, but allways think would you like to see someone askin about stuff that been part of this game for a numbers of years this aint a slaggin just advise:
    If your unsure contact someone in the forums who has done it all and seen it all

    thanx morgan xoxo

    A couple of options here ...

    1. Continue talking about archers vs. scouts, and I'll move this thread to the proper place.
    2. Continue derailing this thread and I close it.

    You decide. .....
    Too late I've decided.

    In that case...I'll put us back on topic.

    Archers are far more efficient when used in the right situation. Per 100K scouts, you might kill 15K archers. With 100K archers, you can easily kill 100K archers. I find scouts are more expensive, and less time-effective than archers if you use them for attacking.

    Well, that statement is dependent upon a lot of assumptions: that you have time to wait for a tradefire to hit (2 mins as opposed to a 10 sec sb, at the very least), that you are using a low hero to scout bomb and a high hero to archer tradefire, that you do not have either instant scouts or instant archers, and that the number of mechs on the defender's side do not outweigh (by cumulative attack value) the number of archers on defender's side.

    If you were to have instant scouts but not instant archers, it might be more efficient for you to use scout bombs than archer tradefires. If there were 50k pults, 50k ballies, and 150k archers on defender's side, it would definitely behoove you to use scout bombs rather than archer trade-fire, since each scout bomb will translate into 8k or so pults dead...definitely worth it, imo.

    But really, it is all dependent upon your battle skills and the make-up of your troops, and your enemy's skill and the make-up of his troops.

    Archers are much more effective in terms of resources but scouts are much easier, and I find (with 1 population needed and 1K+ hero) that scouts are really fast to build in bulk and a few Mil can destroy nearly any offline player.
    It just depends which you use in the right way.
