Besides, archers are strategic units that allow you not to advance, but to wait for the enemy to approach.

Not always. For example, the castle in front of the swamp has a significant ranged advantage and a speed advantage (if angels are present). This means that there is no point in protecting your lizardmen anymore (they will either be blocked or shot down), and you will have to engage in close combat. :smile14: On the other hand, the castle's archers can deal with extremely dangerous gorgons, so you need to protect the lizardmen, but you still have to attack.
