    Exclamation Re: Missile accuracy vs. kill speed?

    Well a sling had a longer effective range than most bows, at least there a a good deal of qoutes regarding it. As a ranged trooper used to spread killing without taking it getting shot should have been pretty bad, especially if you had only little protection...

    In any case it seems that CA made the Slingers slowfiring heavy-hitters with normal range while archers are weaker faster shooters with higher accuracy, sometimes longer range and and a extra tactical option - flaming arrows...

    So a combination of both should be rather effective, especially if you have Balearic Slingers and Foresters

    Yeah and Slingers are a great option in wet climate, at least some random tests didn't show any affection by rain, and didn't seemed to be bothered by the Pikes - although I need more testing to confirm this

    Cheers
