I'm pretty sure that (Elite) Skirmishers don't benefit from Thumb Ring: http://ageofempires.wikia.com/wiki/Skirmisher_(Age_of_Empires_II) For Arbalests/Xbowmen having Yeomen in Castle Age, range bonus, and 20% faster Archery Ranges should be enough to compensate for no Thumb Ring. But (Elite) Longbowmen is usually the much preferred archer in the later game, increasing their accuracy rate would be a much better idea than changing the one of the effects of Yeomen and would seem less noticeable so players really accustomed to AoC that play FE will not complain about it.The problem is that arbs and skirms are used often as Britons as well :?
i think lbm should get a faster firing rate. historically they could fire faster than a crossbow (by a lot... but i cant remember how much!)

and since when a bow has more power than a crossbow? its all about balance
I was into archery and I can tell you this:i think lbm should get a faster firing rate. historically they could fire faster than a crossbow (by a lot... but i cant remember how much!)

Actually you'd be surprised. Longbows have almost as much foot poundage as a Crossbow, a longer range, and a Longbowman can fire 2-5 arrows per minute while a Crossbow does only 1 per minute.
i dunno man, ever since i played that game i think that chokes can be DEVESTATING if youre going against the britons. They had cavaliers and halbs fighting and blocking his longbowmen, skirms, and trebs. it was terrible.Sara couldn't beat Brits in a post-imp game?!
Sounds weird 2 me.
Doesn't Sara have SOs? There are no chokes in that case, unless they didn't cut the forest.i dunno man, ever since i played that game i think that chokes can be DEVESTATING if youre going against the britons.

Sara has a lot of options in post-imp.
Would put my money on 'em vs Brits any day.
