I notice in the weapons list there is a slingshot but no slings. I believe there is a reference to Elves having slings in the Fall of Gondolin. Surely they would still exist following that.http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/SlingsBut is there ever a mention of slingshots? Is that just a Peter Jackson invention?
In small skirmishes I also find most archers somewhat underwhelming. Not everyone will agree with these changes, but personally I find that bumping bows to strength 3 and/or improving orcs' and goblins' shooting to 4+ can make a world of difference.I don't feel like this diminishes elves' superiority too much, since IMO their big benefit is 3+ shooting, but one could then do something like making their "in the way" rolls a 5+ instead of 4+ or something if you felt it was needed.
