Default Re: Bulk and ST for missile weapons

You know, Ive been thinking about this quite a bit myself as I continue to ponder the essential wood question and its effects on constructs.

Let me see if I can come up with a logic that can relate DR to HP of damge dealt or range. Essentialy, if DR is your ability to take damage with out loss of structural integrity and flexing the Bow/Crossbow is essentially the sort of non permenant damge that DR is meant to represent, could you draw a paralell?

Let me be more clear.

Can you define the min DR and HP of a crossbow as a function of its ability to impart Kinetic energy to a bolt?

Can you then take that DR and HP to let you know how much material is IN one so that you can then determine its apporpriate dimensions?

The reason I wonder is becaues Im curious to see if essential wood would make a bow/crossbow more or less useful for high strength creatures.

Get back to you soon....
