World 2

Cost: 250 gold, 50 stone, 50 lumber, 1 hour
Requires: Bow (1), Barracks (10)

Strategy

Individual Archer units have higher atk+def than either Stone Throwers or Spearfighters. This makes them ideal for filling your warships for attacks, where space is limited. They can also contribute greatly to island defense, however, they build slower and are slightly less Gold efficient than fully upgraded Spearfighters.
