That being said, were it not for Pyramid's ability to bundle the included spreadsheet with the article, I suspect the project woudl have been wound down a bit.

He took a chance on what was basically darn near a physics paper (and the author of The Defense Academy Warbow Trials thought it "neat," which says something. About someone.) with a near-mandatory spreadsheet.

but it's DELIBERATELY out there, which he made abundantly clear. As he said.
I totally missed the spreadsheet. I do not know how. 8O

That spreadsheet is really cool. I am not knowledgeable on Excel, can I just add new materials on the “Materials List Pounds” and “Arrow Tables” tabs? Will Excel auto adjust the calculations to include the new rows?

Edit: I inserted a row in the middle of the tables and needed to copy over a couple formulas from other cells but it worked.

I will need to add magical materials in now. XD
