If archers fire at an enemy and are then engaged in melee combat in the same turn, do they deal fewer hits in the melee? I ask because this happened in a battle report:
Turn 9:
Personal Bodyguard (2) fire on Peasant Militia (3), scoring 290 hits.
Close Combat (Attacker Line 1):
Personal Bodyguard (2) score 73 hits on Peasant Militia (3).
Turn 10:
Close Combat (Attacker Line 1):
Personal Bodyguard (2) score 151 hits on Peasant Militia (3).
Turn 11:
Close Combat (Attacker Line 1):
Personal Bodyguard (2) score 151 hits on Peasant Militia (3).
Turn 12:
Close Combat (Attacker Line 1):
Personal Bodyguard (2) score 130 hits on Peasant Militia (3).
And so on. They were attacking the same enemy unit (there was only one), but there's a huge difference between the hits dealt when they also fired and the hits dealt when they didn't. I'm not complaining, as it makes sense, I just want to know if that's the reason for it.

I've never noticed that before, but it does make sense.
