There's a reason one has archers or pikemen in regiments.


Yup. Line battles usually consist of a line of shieldmen up front with either spears or glaives in the line behind them to do the real heavy hitting.


Pavise Crosbowmen me please. Having a shield that big is infinetly useful, even if it's strapped to your back!


And if battles didn't flow so damn fast, using that would work out. That said, even huge field battles with 200+ people out tend to last for less than fifteen minutes, provided that there isn't a respawn in the battle.

And, sadly, the rules in Bel gimp crossbows like crazy. They can only have a 15lb draw, when realistically most crossbows could have up to a 45lb draw and still not shoot as hard as a normal bow with a sub 30lb draw.

I was thinking more of keeping the Pavise on your back, rather then using it as cover to fire behind. I was thinking of all the dirty sneaky tricks one could use it for, considering it would be incredible to use in conjunction with glancing blows.

So when do we see Blodwyne, Elf, and Brookman, and Kyle?
In the far, far future. Maybe.

Double-crossers will be burnt. evil


Hahaha...
I'm considering it...
I'm generally fireproof.
I knew I should've kept that kangaroo picture.

And I'm not joining in either, for obvious reasons.

I'm more normal now, one foot firmly in avant garde and the other in midstream. xp

I heart Anne Summers, Patrick & Skinner, Tatty Divine and Carvela!

I personally think all these stereotypes are a bit pathetic honestly, sure people can dress up in baggy, dark, strange cloths, talk like they've got vocal disorders and do plain weird stuff to themselves, but in reality, we are all the same.
