Slitherine

Just playing Taurus BC for the first time. I wondering why the single foot archer BG, that is deployed in the lower left corner of the map has only light spears as weapons but not bows.

sounds like a glitch when the scenario was designed. You can pick an icon and change its weapons in the scenario editor, my guess is it was a click choice that got overlooked, hopefully the devs will see that and make a change.
