First world with archers, pretty sure I played this game before they were put in, or I just never played a world with them. Could use a little help or guidance if you guys would be so kind to do so. Or at least point me in the right direction to find some, that would be awesome too.

Well it's not to difficult...
If your defense nuke incorporates 10K spear... change it to 5K sp and 5K archers

To counter archers one needs to use mounted archers... the ratio has been discussed many times over but the general census is that anything over 750 mounted archers is not needed. (On .net there is a chart somewhere showing the damage one receives and having 750 MA with 1800+ LC accompanied with a normal axe nuke (say 7K axe and 220 rams) was the most efficient attack against the 5K|5K|3K (spears, archers, swords).

Archers; Great against axe, Great against lc, HORRIBLE against ma.

Generally, most people don't build many MA and that is why I utilize archers. I tend to build SP/HC/Archers in my defensive villages. It is slightly slower to build than just straight SP/HC but it is more effective in my opinion.

Assuming ahead of a world to use 5k sp 5k archers is probably a bad idea. It always depends on the type of people around you and what your dealing with. To the OP, adjust your archers to how much MA people are using, and vice versa for when your attacking.

As for efficiency ratings, I've never thought those carry much weight when it comes to archer worlds because there are too many variables. I get that general ratios can be effective, but in the end you never know what the precise best setup is ahead of time. Just stick with a build and keep it until it stops being effective.

thats very good advice... still, the rule of thumb is... 750 MA's to 5K archers.... but as you point out, its best to build per your enemy. if they are hc/sp then MA's aren't needed..

On archers worlds I do some d vills like this:4k spears,4k swords,1.5k archers and the remaining farm spaces are filled with hc.But you shouldnt have all your defense vills built the same way.Sometimes 8k sp and 2k hc is way more effective,just watch how enemies build their nukes.Most onlyrecruit 250-300 ma,so archers are good,use the simulator to find out more
