Well, I'd like to know, apart from increased range, what advantage does the high-ground give to archers in real life ? Otherwise said, what does this mechanism aim to capture ? I don't see.
My dude. I dont know what to tell you, maybe we ought to turn it into one of those little maths diagrams for high school.
Well, I still don't see, so if it's obvious to you, I'm happy to hear an explanation. I don't know how adding pictures in the forum posts work, but if you can give me a couple of pointers in word form, that could be a start.
In real life, firing from elevation gives you increased range and makes it less likely that your target will be obscured because they are behind something or prone. It also makes you harder to reach if somebody decides to rush your position. Other than that, there really isn’t any specific advantage to firing down at a target that I can think of.
