Longbowmen

Longbowmen are one of the several types of soldiers in Grim Nights. These are Tier 3 archers. When you have to pick between these and Musketeers, make your +50%ers Longbowmen and your +100%ers Musketeers. As the game's tooltip states, Longbowmen have a long range and are not very accurate. They have a minimum range, which is where Musketeers come in. Essentially, if you put them in a fully upgraded guard tower (the one with the fire on top), they will shoot flaming arrows in a vast arc (other units shoot in a straight line), which will damage and burn over time. They are highly lethal when massed, and all but the fastest and toughest enemies will fall. I had 25 of them by around day 10, and by day 12, I had replaced all the +50%ers (10 base damage) with +100%ers (14 base damage). It was always a pleasure to watch them kill everything, including bats (yes, there are bats). It's akin to bombing the enemy with arrows. One drawback of Longbowmen is that it's nearly impossible for them to hit individual targets like Bosses. They usually overshoot, but in massive waves of enemies, it's not a big deal. If you want accuracy, Musketeers are the way to go.
