Should Order Crossbowmen be made a bit tougher, defensively or maybe HP-wise?
They are wearing heavy armor after all. I know they've got more attack power then Elven archers.……
Or did I miss something and they're actually tough buggers? ;D

Thanks!

Instant aimed attack turns their 16 Ranged Attack into 24, plus the possibility of an armor piercing attack versus non-uniques. That would hurt just about anyone.

A Crossbowman who's had 5 minutes of learning how to use the Crossbow can kill a Knight who's had a lifetime of training.
I suppose the lack of health is made up for their powerful attack, especially at the level of 6. Seems rather fair to me. Besides, they are archer-units. Archer units tend to be weak in HP or Armor but strong in Attack. At least, that's what I've had in my gaming experience.

Archer units tend to be weak in HP or Armor but strong in Attack. At least, that's what I've had in my gaming experience. I balanced all military units between each other. Balanced Ranged Troops against Ranged Troops, and against Cavalry and Infantry in general. The same applies with Cavalry and Infantry versus Ranged Troops, on a general level.
