i always imagined it like the apes from 2001 a space odyssey

2019-09-30 15:53:41 UTC  

just bone on bone

2019-09-30 15:54:14 UTC  

slings are lame

2019-09-30 15:54:15 UTC  

Honest tho, slings are pretty deadly

2019-09-30 15:54:22 UTC  

^

2019-09-30 15:54:24 UTC  

bows are the patrician's ranged weapon

2019-09-30 15:54:46 UTC  

slings are lighter weight, pick up ammo on the fly

2019-09-30 15:54:49 UTC  

But the problem with slings is that you need shitloads of practice to be good with them

2019-09-30 15:54:56 UTC  

that is true

2019-09-30 15:55:01 UTC  

And the range suck

2019-09-30 15:55:10 UTC  

can slings even do anything against bronze armour

2019-09-30 15:55:25 UTC  

just be a true kurd and use a homemade anti material rifle <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

2019-09-30 15:55:28 UTC  

They can make some gnarly dents iirc

2019-09-30 15:56:17 UTC  

@Tero bows are cool af

2019-09-30 15:56:17 UTC

@gary underwood probably lots if you're unironically using a sling

2019-09-30 15:56:45 UTC  

I did a tiny bit of archery a few years ago and it's awesome

2019-09-30 15:56:50 UTC  

although more likely you're just up against peasant farmers/slaves who revolted

2019-09-30 15:57:08 UTC  

archery is fucking hard

2019-09-30 15:57:14 UTC  

naw

2019-09-30 15:57:16 UTC  

It's cool tho

2019-09-30 15:57:18 UTC  

I did it a couple times

2019-09-30 15:57:21 UTC

2019-09-30 15:57:26 UTC

2019-09-30 15:57:37 UTC  

Sore*

2019-09-30 15:58:01 UTC  

Well when you're learning to draw the bow it's pretty hard

2019-09-30 15:58:10 UTC  

The string is a lot tougher than it looks

2019-09-30 15:58:13 UTC

2019-09-30 15:58:40 UTC  

mongol bows were pretty low poundage weren't they?

2019-09-30 15:58:43 UTC  

but that might be because I also trained back and triceps that day <:GWcorbinTopKek:384871333705678868>

2019-09-30 15:58:44 UTC
