Default Re: [From Real Life] We're gonna have to adjust Bow ROFs

This exact video has been posted numerous times (three at last count) and I can't be bothered to dig up the old threads but a summery of future comments:

1) The bow has a very low draw weight and would do next to no damage in GURPS.

2) He's not pulling for a full-power shot (on top of #1).

3) This is an example of "Bow (Art)" skill and would be penalized in combat conditions.

4) The rules reflect this perfectly well with Heroic Archer, Weapon Master and Martial Arts (also see #1, 2 and 3 for why he's able to use a cinematic ability).
