I just played a game against an english player, and watching the replay I noticed that when his villagers were attacking my mining camp, he switched to attack my villagers when the torch animation was going. This made his 3 villagers to deal 30 damage to my villagers.
In the following image you can see both the bows and the torches:
And here you can see that he dealt 30 damage instead of 15. He did it twice to kill my villagers
On my second gold he did the same:
With just 3 shots I lost 30 hp
This must be fixed, this makes no sense at all.
