Is it limited by the bow and type of arrows used, or is there anything else that affects this. Thanks. Posts: 27 | Registered: Tuesday, June 21 2005 07:00 |

It's also affected by your Dexterity and Bows skills. The amount of this effect depends on which Avernum game you're playing; in Avernum 1 and Avernum 2 your skills have a small effect, but in Avernum 3 it's very significant indeed. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Hm... in that case, is there any practical reason that someone would use a regular bow instead of a crossbow?

Only if you had magical arrows and a magical bow compared to poor bolts and a poor crossbow. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
