Towers built on city walls to provide a vantage point for shooting enemies. Like all Evony defenses it is only effective in huge numbers.

Archer's towers are very sturdy and are not easy to destroy as an attacker but don't delude yourself that you are safe.

At Level 5 Walls and below, towers can be blown away by:

1. Archers on about a 3:1 ratio (eg 9,000 Archers will make mincemeat of 3,000 Towers), provided the attackers Archery research is similar or higher than the defenders although this ratio changes to 5:1 if the defenders walls are level 6 or higher.
2. Ballista - they stand-off and reduce Towers at little to no loss to themselves, also depending on Archery levels.
3. Catapult - they stand-off and reduce Towers at little to no loss to themselves, also depending on Archery levels.

However when walls get to L6 and above the defenders chances dramatically increase as each level extends the Archer Towers range by 5%.

-with walls above level six the generally accepted ratio of archers to archer towers is 10:1, to avoid heavy losses.

Building Tip: Save up enough resources to build 5000 at a time. (this is for a fairly well developed server-at least a month old) This works to solve them the problem of being next to powerful people who kill your archers towers as you build them- ex: you build 300, they kill them...you cant ever get a decent amount...
