    The elephant archers cost 5 of army population wich only decreases to 4 after the fort upgrade, wich is still a too high value. For the players could use this unit (nobody uses those elephants wich is a shame), its population count should be decreased to 4 or even 3. That way we could train enough elephant archers so their number could compensate the bad health they have.
    What do you guys think about it?

    Elephant Archers have the highest health of any archer unit in the game. They don't go toe-to-toe, which is why 700 health is more than enough to keep them nigh invulnerable as a unit with 27 range and 50 pierce damage (vs 33 damage and 280 hit points for the chariot archers).

    They are more useful against the skirmish AI's "mass Palintonon/stone throwers" to back up your elephants when trying to cut those down.
