I think that you should be able to recruit Hobbit Archers, at a cost of something like 250. Weak health, but fairly good attack. Tolkein said that Hobbits were excellent at skills like using bows.

Well extreme lengths for an extreme mod. Hob archers are like the only agressive hobs in the book (Scoring of the Shire) so that would be the unit I would most likely think to see in the hob world.

Then give the sherrifs a bow toggle instead of rocks.

I thought that was in my "final plan"...

Rename the Hobbit Pitchforks to something (most likely Militia), and give them forks, scythes, bills, and other long farm tools.
Then rename Hobbits to Hobbit Shirrifs, make it so some of them single handed axes, knifes, and clubs/staffs and the rest double handed staffs and axes, and make it so they use a bow instead of throwing rocks.

Wasn't that what we agreed on?

It would be fun, and more accurate to the lore, but it would destroy the balance. Arnor shouldn't have four archer units.

They would still have all the same attack. It is simply a model change. Only the visuals would be affected.

Well to be honest they should be Took Hunters, not Hobbit Archers :thumbsupsmiley:

We were suggesting to make the normal hobbits it to a more realistic unit. The same stats and all just a model change.

I don't see how that could be a problem.
