Typical Archer Rainbow

The basic idea behind the archer rainbow is simple. Each layer gives your archers an extra round of firing before they get hit by the enemy. Because you have only a small amount of units in each layer, they will probably be killed in one round each. The problem with this setup is if the enemy has Archer towers, archers, ballista and catapults, they will fire and kill 3 layers at the one time meaning in just a couple of rounds your rainbow will be killed long before your archers get into firing range. 

-This is one of the most common attacks in evony used to clear out enemy layers.
