So about 1d impaling is about right for the 150lb warbow. A crossbow fires roughly the same velocity, but is much easier to aim and train and hit with, at the cost of long reload times. |
In your opinion, what's the GURPS ST required for a 150 lbs. warbow? And how long was the direct fire range of such a bow?
