Round table

By the way, here's an example from life – something small, but annoying: I attack a horde of ordinary neutral gremlins with a Tower army in the snow. There are, of course, about 40 blue ones, but I have the same number in my first stack, and I attacked:D – why do these bastards shoot first???:mad: – where is the justice?

Because you had gargoyles, and they attacked first. And when the speeds are equal, the one who made the last move is taken into account first – the right to the next move is given to their opponent.

Therefore, when attacking small ranged units with the speed of gremlins, it makes sense to attack without gargoyles at all – for the first move. And without golems – for the first move in the 2nd round.

A simple example – you attack with 2 squads of 40 units against 2 squads of 20 units. The first shot is yours – you hit the upper stack, and it becomes much smaller (depending on the parameters and the presence of archery). The second shot is from the first stack of neutrals – it shoots and kills a few of your units. The third shot is yours – you hit the lower stack. The fourth shot is from them – the defeated lower stack also kills some of your units, but not many. The second round – the first move is again yours, and you finish them off.

But if you attack with your entire army, the units will line up in one stack, move before your units, and then really hit your last units...
