Default [DF] Heroic Archer Template

I threw the template together as an imbuement wielding scout variant, for a possible upcoming DF game, and just for something to tinker around with. I figured I would post it up here for feedback, and in case someone wanted to grab it. Let me know if you see any problems with the setup, requirements, or power

[enigmatic]I would wait until this month's Pyramid issue...[/enigmatic]
I do have one such archer in my game right now. However, we're using 300 starting points, and uses the standard Scout template with some extras

Looking over this, I see Far Shot under skills. What is that? I've never heard of that before.

Dude, Gurps 4th edition is 16 years old, so no topic is irrelevant.

Thanks, by the way.
