Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

Wondering if there's any advice I can get from this group on the uses
and/or tactica of LC JLS, Sh with no bow? I seem to have a grasp on
how to basically use LC JLS, B, Sh, but wondering how you do something
meaningful with JLS only armed LC? With their short missile range, do
they become only a delaying unit, or is there something more you can
do with these guys?

Thanks for any help.

1. Move up to an inch and skirmish with B armed LC. If they're irreg,
they'll have difficulty countering away, and you'll do more casualties. If
they're reg they probably don't have JLS, and you're up in both shooting
and combat. If he wants to counter, he'll eventually run out of table.


2. Cream his LI.

3. Great troops to use in cavalry starved lists as pursuers, flank
marchers, or flank attackers or to exploit an opening, such as a shaken or
disordered unit you wouldn't otherwise be able to catch and stay in
contact with.

I really like this troop type.
