[QUOTE="Larrin, post: 4335715, member: 55816"] Keeping track of ammo is tiresome. Period. Consdier a ranger with alot of his multi-firing of arrows, etc. Thrown weapons (knives, hammer, hatchets) sure, you've got 6, you can throw 6 per encounter, but it should be assumed that you'll pick them up afterwards. if you have 30 arrows, you won't run out in one encounter (usually) but you certainly in one dungeon (!) so you'll forever be saying things like "I look for arrows from the enemy" "I look for arrows in the barrel" "can we go back and get some arrows?" "I try to make more arrows out of the goblins spear handle". WHEEEEEEEE! its like running out of spells all over again. Make them buy 60 arrows, and auto assume that they will a)loot all availible arrows b) repair/make some during downtime c) only has 30 arrows during any given encounter (perhaps more at higher levels) and quite frankly you can suspend disbelief enough to not force bookkeeping on the poor archer.
