IHMN Bow Question
« on: September 06, 2013, 06:58:10 PM »
I have quite a few Alkemy Jade Triad figures that I'm going to be using as Black Dragon Tong. the problem is the only missile weapons they are armed with are elegant longbows rather than normal ones, what would be a good range and cost for them chaps?

I'd count them as normal bows, Chinese and Japanese bows might be long and pretty but they weren't up to the standards of an English Longbow. The Indian shaped bamboo bows arguably were and some of the steppes horsebows probably have better armour penetration but at the end of the day we're gaming a period where the gun is dominant and none of the bows match it really. For simplicities sake I'd count all the bows the same for the game.
So many projects..... so little time.......
