And you have to remember - archers do not have perfect aim, you'll rarely if ever hit the unit you actually target and they've also got the chance to miss completely and damage nothing, so all of this damage is going to be very spread out.
I applaud the way you thought about the numbers though, I think like that too.

I'd think balance would be in the back of Reverie's mind until beta actually hits, and then it will become second most important issue. It sounds like you guys have some issues with network coding and the server side of things. Balance tweaks are easy to ballpark, so I think that Rev will probably assign only a few guys to fine tune that come third beta-working on crashes is more important to a community then working on balance.
