I think you have a problem with number of archer elements versus number of HW elements (as neither can outnumber other by more than 2 to 1) - and (assuming memory serves) all the LF bow count as archer elements for this. I also think one of the TCs has to be an ally.

I've tried the army a couple of ...

But I'm not aware of a stop at 1 MU rule (except for the one about pursuers (pg 108 ...
