Checking Pyramid #3/33, it looks like it has a specified amount of damage just like a gun.
Given the limitations of the bow's elasticity, does that mean that even with ST based damage, its max power must be equal to the bow's min ST?
Bows do have a set damage value.

This is from Basic page 270:

"Crossbows and ST: Bows, crossbows, and prodds have their own ST value. Use this instead of your ST to determine range and damage. You must specify the ST of such a weapon when you buy it. You can always use a weapon that is weaker than you. You can use a stronger crossbow or prodd; it does more damage but take longer to cock (see Shots, above). You cannot use a stronger bow."
