    dude you should explain better...

    But if you say that musks counter xbows, then I might answer you, since always, only exceptions are micro, and this 1.01 patch.

    Its weird that musks will beat xbows in even numbers, yet they take almost the same amount of vs each... 132 VS for a Musketeer and 130 VS for a Crossbowman... weird...

    Increasing the xbows range from 12 to 14 would be a good idea, to help them counter more effectively.

    o wow that is so amazing...

    Muskets beat ANY RI unit in meele (except for RI mercs)...

    That is pretty much obvious and even noobs know that...

    Increasing the xbows range from 12 to 14 would be a good idea, to help them counter more effectively.

    giving them more range would be nice, and a indirect nerf to 10/10 rush and Ashis.

    but they already have 16, so we can't increase much, or else they would nerf FF even more, because one of the biggest advantages of the skirm over the xbow is the 20 range.

    i think that if xbows got 17 or 18 range, would be enough

    and i don't think they should increase the skirm range, or else they'd get too close from the longbow, and the LB's uniqueness is the very long range

    Since 1.01 for TAD, xbows easily defeat muskets in range attack, they even have a bonus vs them now.
