The Dale Bowmen are an elite ranged alternative to the Axe Throwers for Erebor; they move faster and have a greater battalion size and hit just as hard but with a different damage type. They shoot arrows instead of axes, and they can be upgraded with fire arrows. The Dale Archers are quite unique as a 15-men elite battalion, whereas most elites are usually restricted to the 10-men battalion size.
