:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

With Rangers sent, description of Siege Archery change to improve Rangers instead of Longbowmen. But the card doesn’t grant Range Siege Attack to Rangers if you send it.

I checked techtreey.xml and found out how this happened. It is the last line of DEHCRangers causes the bug:

<effect type=“SetName” proto=“Longbowman” newname=“113191” newrollover=“113194”>

This line changes all Longbowmen’s unit name to “Ranger”, which is useless as all Longbowmen will be transformed into another protounit, the Ranger. Then this line makes the description of Siege Archery change from improve Longbowman to improve Ranger.

Btw, new rollover strings of techs affected by Rangers card should be 113194, not 113193.
