As soon as Elyas reached his ranks and prepared himself, Knight-Commander Doraleous lowered his sword in a swift motion, allowing the archers to strike.

The archers finally allowed the string of their longbows loose and launched a wave of arrows towards Camlorn's forces.

Seeing that the Adamantine men were not as many as the King's, a simple orientation was given to the initial strikes: each archer had at least one footman carrying a shield big enough for both of them and it was the footmen's responsibility to keep their ranged companion alive. Those duos were the first lines in Doraleous' army, heavy footmen and longbowmen while the horsemen and the experienced heavy infantry stood in the back.
