Message: <blockquote data-quote="Guest 7037866" data-source="post: 9463133">LOL, like I am hardly going to trust the illustrations of the game given the lack of accurate design...?And muskets could be 6 feet... So even if I gave value to those illustrations (like I ever would... I mean look at most of the weapons and the extreme proportions of the greatsword and warhammer, etc. or the insanely short blowgun--I guess one of the shortest blowguns in existance!), I would just say "fine, it is a 6-foot musket and a 6-bow longbow.A longbow in D&D has always meant to represent real-world examples, such as the English longbow. It is the "warbow" for D&D--they are not "non-existent" in the game. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />LOL why not!?! Of course they can... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> 2024 game design rears its silly, ugly head yet again...Length for bows directly contributes to maximum draw weight (along with the composition of the bow--the most important factor!).Recurved design added to the draw weight for shortbows, but longbows don't have as much recurve--if any really hardly at all, since the length and composition created bows with sufficient draw for war.</blockquote>
