<Snipped quote by Chenzor>

Can I be moved to northwest then?

@Cyclone

That will put you close to the Steppe...

[Cyclone]

@Voltus_Ventus

And that will put the Steppe close to the Ards

[KaiserAuto]

Someone is going to be close to someone else no matter what we do.
So just laugh it off.

@KaiserAuto

It's fine, I think he's just implying that there might be war. That's okay, without a few battles this RP wouldn't be as interesting.

[Chenzor]

@Cyclone Since I already made the map you're on the wrong spot this turn, but I will fix when next turn arrives, don't worry!

@Chenzor

Thanks!

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Do we go ahead with turns again?

[KaiserAuto]

The GM is the one who dictates when the turns occure.

@KaiserAuto

I saw you mention NPC nations in the OOC. Do you plan to make some of them to add to the map, or are we free to just discover a bunch of elves/trolls/whatever living nearby to interact with?

To be fair, slings were incredibly deadly killing machines and were only outclassed due to a bows superior range(Sike, just looked that up, they outranged bows prior to the invention of the english longbow) ease to use.

The Romans even invented a tool specifically designed for removing lead sling bullets from fallen soldiers...

Adding to this because I have a huge inexplicable attachment to slings (Damn you total war)
-Bows are easier to use in dense foliage
-Bows are much, much easier to learn how to use
-When used in formation Archers can be clumped while slingmen must be spread out, resulting in a less massed volley.
-Slings are even more physically intensive than bows.

however slings worked incredibly well against armored (or unarmored) targets

TL:DR- David vs Goliath was rigged from the start

Add to this that these are ancient hunters with four times the strength of actual ancient hunters.

@ActRaiserTheReturned

Throwing spears would probably suit your people better, if hunting in dense forests for big game. Pretty much any thing that falls in y'alls hands(claws?) is gonna be deadly

Of course they have spears too.

@Cyclone

I think you tagged the wrong bag, mayne.
