Description
Archery
is a common development on many
primitive worlds, and this weapon is typical of the
smaller, more compact weapons that can be
encountered. The archer grasps the bow by the
middle and nocks an arrow against the bowstring,
where it can be held in place by finger pressure
until ready to fire. To fire, the archer draws
the string back, takes aim and releases the arrow.
Weapons of this type are handier when mounted on a
riding animal, and are often used in such a fashion
by warriors or hunters. |
