Archer

Archer (ACHR) is a class in the Shining series.

Description

An Archer is a ranged unit used in all Tactical Shining Force games. Archers can use arrows (shells, quarrels, in Shining Force 3) to attack their enemies. Protect an archer with a swordsman or warrior, since these units wield short range weapons.

Archers are most commonly of the Elf race. There have been some from the Human and Centaur races. Archers use a weapon such as a bow and arrow to fire projectiles at a distance at the enemy. In the game Shining Force II an archer character can be promoted to a Brass Gunner with the Silver Tank. This is a tank for the archer to sit in and fire projectiles. Other styles are bazooka (Lyle) or crossbow (promoted Janet). The archer category consists of the following classes:

• Archer [ACHR]
• Assault Knight [ASKT]
• Bow Knight [BWKT]
• Bow Master [BWMS]
• Brass Gunner [BRGN]
• Ranger [RNGR]
• Sniper [SNIP]
• Strike Knight [SKNT]
