[QUOTE="Frostmarrow, post: 1632358, member: 1122"] The ban on missile weapons makes me think of Bretonnia in Warhammer Fantasy Battle. In some ways it's a good restriction but in other ways it's not. In the Bretonnia case the knights allow commoners to use missile weapons but they refuse to do so themselves. To me this sounds like they have a double set of standards which is, to me, pretty hard to overlook.

It's better to give the Warrior-Knight abilities that makes them rock in melee than to ban them from using missiles. For example a barbarian wielding a greatsword will never use his longbow, other than maybe for sport. But even knights should be able to shoot with a longbow for sport.
