Archery and Thrown Weapons

Archery and thrown weapon data are given in the Archery Data Table (3A).

This data is described below.

Weight: The weight of the weapon in pounds.

Minimum Strength (MSTR): The MSTR measures the strength and skill required to use a bow.

A character may use only bows whose MSTR value is less than or equal to the sum of his Strength characteristic and Archery Skill Level.

Range: A thrown weapon's range in 2 foot hexes.

Reload Time: The time in phases required to prepare, aim, and fire a shot.

Projectile Weight (PW): Weight in pounds of each arrow, quarrel, or projectile.

Impact Damage (ID): Projectile impact versus range.

Damage Table: The Damage Table column specifies the type of damage tables to use.

All archery weapons except the sling use the Stabbing Damage Tables.
