I find them somewhat weak, even if I have a crossbow.

Does anyone use them a lot? I did use them a lot at one point when I have all human troops (inquisitors, knights, horseman, paladin, bowmen) which give me good morale.

yes they are very very good ranged units to use... their special arrows are very useful and the only major downside to them is they get targeted alot by the comp ai which is very annoying... i use them and always will because they are just perfectly handy.

and they arnt good until late game they are good for the whole game with the right units to back them up... im at the end of the game with no trouble at all with bowmen in my army.
