Title: Ranged Combat and Damage (Non-gun variety)
Post by: Gil on March 24, 2008, 04:18:55 AM

How do we figure arrow, bolt and other such low-tech ranged damage? Am I just missing it in the rules?

Not sure what you mean... but bows have damage just like guns. I think we were adjusting the damge for skill level (other wise bows will never scale up like better guns and melee)...

We have damage charts for different types of rounds but I could not locate anything for arrows (broadhead, target, etc.) and bolts.

Do we have those? The reason I ask is fantasy setting I am working on has no guns to scale against  :)

Ahhh.. that we do not have, and it's a heck of an idea :)

I've since put together three lists for the project I am working on. I've got ranged, melee and armor put together and they just need to be statted out.

Soon, I will be working on a skill set that is more inline with a Fantasy setting (no modern skills) and more work on the spell system and spells.

Sounds good... you up for working on that this saturday instead of gaming? Getting everyone together seems to get the creative juices flowing better methinks :)
