I am getting a bit confused with the commands, how do I activate "Fire at will" command, when I start the fight?

F4 or something, theyre all listed on the left side of the screen. Look at the keybinds too. They should be in Fire at Will mode by default, but many people are reporting archers to be broken and useless.

Hit backspace and select fire at will

Yeah should be on by default. If you "activate" it again it will deactivate fire at will because it's on by default. However for archers I also seem to have the issue, at least with empire archers that they sometimes seem to not attack at all even during the day and even when they have clear sight and no friendly troops in front of them. Not sure what the issue is.

I think there's supposed to be fog or something in game. Sometimes your archer's range is really limited, and pretending it's super foggy is the only thing that makes sense.

On a related matter, how do I select different types of troops (archers, infantry, cavalry etc) to give them different orders?

1 for infantry, 2 for archers, 3 for calvary, etc
