Tactical Playbook
Archer Range
5 range matches Arbalesters. No longer outranged in archer fights.
Tanky Archer
2 pierce armor means Arbalesters only deal 4 damage. Very hard to kill with archers.
More HP
65 HP is significant. Survives much longer under fire.
Critical Point
**Still lower attack**. 5 base attack means you need more time to kill enemies. Quantity matters.

+15 HP over base. Survives longer in all fights.
Better Range
+1 over base. Matches Arbalester range.
Strong Armor
