An fortified enemy regular archer on hills got surprised by 16 or so barbarian horseman. He killed them off in defence, promoting to elite with one hit point left. I moved an ancient cavalry, also elite, to get him in next turn, tasting posibilities of consequent MGL. Well, I really reached him, he had two hit points already, just to see how this hero killed my AC with no even losing one of these two puny hitpoints. If it was my archer, he had to become honour guard in capital.
