How to issue attack-move order which will force my units to attack nearest enemy on the way?

[WC3Wonderer]

I select my units and give order to attack enemy base. If enemy archer attacks my units from behind a building then my units run to attack the archer! I want to attack the building first because it is closer to my units. How can I issue attack order which will force my units attack nearest enemy unit or building on the way and do not chase archers standing behind buildings?

There’s no built-in “only attack nearest on path” command, so avoiding this fully requires micro.

People say fortified armor has special handling and has least priority for attack priorization. A workaround is to add a slow 1-1 attack to attract aggro

He did not ask this for custom map, he asked a general Warcraft 3 mechanical question.
