Suicide archers!

Why do archers go out to shoot arrows outside the walls? If they can do it from the castle? Do they have arrows and crossbows?

Happens to me too…even with regular melee infantry. They should stay safe in the castle especially during a raid, until told otherwise…

maybe it would help if we had the ability to mark a gate as locked. like in the game oxygen not included you can mark a door to be locked and a dupe has to run over there and lock it like any other task

AI is weak and the soldiers are weak… they need much more help to be useful and have easy orders too follow … also shouldnt the stone walls have space for soldiers to climb onto?

I would suggest that in addition to rampart walls, there would also need to be walls with patrol corridors (more expensive to build). These walls would have battlements, merlons and loopholes. The gates (which could be level 4) would have boiling oil spillways or machicolations (a production of stones, animal oil, beeswax or pitch produced by the work camps would be necessary for their operation )

Je suggérerais qu’il faudrait en plus des murs de rempart, il faudrait aussi des murs avec couloirs de ronde(plus cher à construire). Ces murs auraient des Créneaux, merlons et meurtrières. Les portes (qui pourraient être de niveau 4) auraient des déversoirs d’huile bouillante ou des mâchicoulis (une production de pierres, d’huile animale, de cire d’abeilles ou de poix productible par les camps de travail serait nécessaire à leur fonctionnement)
