Archer is a [[Loaded Keywords|loaded keyword]] that appears on [[character]]s. Each character with the Archer keyword contributes to the archery total in the [[Archery Phase]], typically causing one wound per archer.
 
'''Archer''' is a [[loaded keyword]] appearing on characters skilled with a bow. At the end of the [[Archery Phase]], each player tallies up the total number of archers on their side (plus or minus any bonuses or penalties), and "fires" that many arrows onto their opponent, which are placed as wounds on eligible targets.  
 
Although archers are the "default" way of increasing the archery total, there are quite a few cards that increase the archery total directly without increasing the number of archers (see {{Card|Double Shot}}). Most archery-based deck strategies will revolve around those alternate bonuses rather than relying on archers to succeed on their own.
 
The {{C|Elven}} culture is the most prominent user of archers in the game, with most other [[Free Peoples]] cultures struggling to put arrows in the air and needing to spend resources to only temporarily harry their foes (see {{Card|Hand Axe}}, {{Card|Rohirrim Bow}}, and {{Card|Gondor Bow}}). Most [[Shadow]] cultures have access to at least a limited contingent of archers, notably {{C|Moria}}, {{C|Isengard}}, and {{C|Raider}}.

|text=All Shadow players count the number of all their minions with the keyword archer to determine the "minion archery total." No matter how many Shadow players there are, there is only one minion archery total.
 
As the Free Peoples player, you also count the number of your Free Peoples archer companions to determine the "fellowship archery total." (See ally.)
 
The Free Peoples player then assigns a number of wounds equal to the minion archery total to his companions (and participating allies), in any way he wishes.
 
He then chooses one Shadow player who must assign a number of wounds equal to the fellowship archery total to his minions, in any way he wishes.}}
