After a slight adjustment to the formation, the Elemental Druids summoned their respective Elemental Servants, and together, they advanced on the Golden Corps.
The two armies marched toward each other menacingly. Before the Steel-backed Porcupines and Giant Shield Guards had even closed the distance, they were attacked by the enemy's ranged units.
The Golden Corps' Holy Archers stuck to their previous tactic: each squad targeted a single Steel-backed Porcupine.
Since the melee units on both sides had yet to engage, there were no War Paladins to deliver any finishing blows. Thus, the archers didn't use normal attacks. Instead, they imbued their arrows with Divine Energy to increase their attack power and armor-piercing capabilities.
