they fire all the cannons at once

instead of at will

Virtually every medieval account of warfare states clearly that men took their shots when they could and they did it firing AT the target not into the air

they really didnt want you just pissing ammunition downrange

im sure it depends on context

Which means volley firing arrows was never a thing- it just looks really cool like a big CGI fight scene- but it is bullshit

They didn't just try and actually steel rain the enemy

but i think youre mis understanding what a volley is

Because they'd send the arrows back

lol

a volley is when you hold your fire

so every man fires at the same time on command

they didnt call it fire

it doesnt actually matter where youre firing

until they ahd guns

^

HAve youe ver tried to hold a bow....

just that its all together

<a:TismCopter:638424089836519435>

bro i can hold my compound bow all day

brfoed

Luci isn't strong enough to draw a bow

I wish I learned how to shoot bows

Seems like fun

if youre only holding your bow for couple seconds i really dont think its that big a deal

@Samaritan™ ive used weak bows before

I literally said mine has a draw strength of 60lbs (70 if I push it) and a warbow has about 150, you want people to hold it and wait for a volley command <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

im not *that* weak

lemme see

"draw"

"release"

My bow is 55 lbs

how many seconds would that take

like

5?

Haven't used it in a while

calm ur tiddies

Lord of the rings two towers had a scene which literally showed why it was a shit idea- the old guy lets loose

that isnt volley firing

if we're talking war bows it's not only hard but it wears you out so you can shoot less

theyre holding their arrows so they dont waste ammo
