I only ask because I've wondered about Warriors vs Archers in this game.
Bronze Working is what I guess you'd call a tier 1 Tech, which means it can be researched from the start of the game. Now even with just 2 Research, you can get it in 7 turns. This gives you access to the Archer unit.
Now looking at the two I see that they're the same, except that Archers have an extra 1 on defense.
So I'm wondering if once I've gotten Bronze working, should I even bother with Warriors? Because I notice Archers don't make Warriors Obsolete as many of the stronger units do during the game, and that seems kind of strange to me.
Technically, they're the same unit - they cost the same, they have the same moves, they have the same attack, however they have that boost on defense. So what would be the point of the warrior unit after discovering them, and why wouldn't they become obsolete?
I'm curious if there's any sort of underlying factor that makes Warriors still stronger when attacking, despite having the same attack strength. Because I have noticed that when my warriors attack a Barb. Village, I rarely lose a unit. However, with an Archer unit it's not uncommon for me to lose a unit, or sometimes two.
That seems like a strange occurrence to me, and perhaps it's complete coincidence. It just seems odd.
