Default Re: What\'s the best unit for Flaming Arrows?

Hm. If giant's boulder catches fire why doesn't Stick&Stones benefit from the spell? Is it just an oversight or decision made on purpose? I remember Markatas' bows needed to have fire weapons added afterwards.

I once used bow of war on unit with Heroic Quickness and Jade Armour while Flaming Arrows was active. Good times, good times...

Problem with Bow of War is that it has only 7 shots and after that commander goes to melee. So, probably, you normally don't want quickness on him)

Or you could script fire x4, fire and flee (or something similar) and thus avoid melee.

Or do it with a commander that has magic, and simply do Firex5 - Cast Spells.

Or what I do: "Eagle Eyes, fire x 4, stay behind troops" on a shaman or similar.
