I would add the archrs won, but we did have a couple of good rifle shooters, my dad drawing on his experience as a small arms trainer when he was in the army in the 50's!

But to mix it up like this may be better than a straight shoot.
Weve done the same sort of thing against darts teams. The darts players usually get cheezed off at how long 3 arrows takes!

As cliveann's archers seem to be longbowmen, perhaps a 2 way comp?
