Hi @Corgi and welcome to the forum! 🥳
Try to put this
> [@Corgi](#):
>
> `hero.command(archer, "attack", archerTarget)`
In a **for archer in archers** loop.
In between those two comments
> [@Corgi](#):
>
> ```python
> # Figure out which enemy has the most health, and set bestTarget to be that enemy.
> # Only focus archers' fire if there is a big ogre.
>

Try to make a for loop that goes through all elements from the enemies array and finds out the enemy with the most health and put it in the variabile bestTarget (as you did in the level with the big archer from the desert)
Do you need any more assistance at this level?

it is the hilighted part
```python

Here is the problem. Delete that, then loop through all the archers and put commandArcher(archer) for all of them.
