Recently, I has to carry a lot of fishing rods with motorcycle (helping my cousin's with their store), no, don't think about small fishing rods, I talk about a rather large fishing rods made from bamboo, with a relatively straight and long (1.5 m each on average) and have considerable thickness. After tied a lot of them on the back and carried them away in the normal manner, my cousins point out that some twenty of them are still not tied. Unable to untie the big bag full of rods without cutting the rope, I decide to carry them on my left hand, putting all of them under my armpit and keep them in place with just a short rope to hold them...
While this morning I run my motorcycle, I remember the EB game that I play tonight..... If I could carry 20++ of these pointy sticks with left hand without interfering much my motor riding ability.... Why the ancient javelin-skirmisher cavalry didn't carry as much as this? So they'll become more effective.....
I think that hippaontistai, hetairoi aspidophoroi, leuce epos, and many mounted javelinmen's ammo can be increased up to 17 or 18 in their realistic condition..... so what did u think? I know, they had to thrown them, but I can do that (take one of these "javelins" and throw them as quickly), if my right hand isn't occupied to twist the gas.....
