KENTONA'S PROFILE
I make games from the heart instead of wasting time with research or experience.
I am an amateur RPG designer and hobbyist with a strong interest in the retro-RPG and NES/SNES era RPG genres. I also happen to be a professional software developer.
I enjoy hockey, video games, reading, writing and playing board games such as Settlers of Catan.
I spend far too much time on RMN, but accomplish nothing of use. I used to be a somebody.
<Clyve> Oh yeah, Kenton you're a somebody again so you should probably modify your profile.
<kentona> so I am

I am tired of Earth. These people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.

Revenge Explains Everything - Clichés To Hate
Bows Are Easy And Only For Women - Clichés To Hate
Crossbows have a ridiculously slow reload rate compared to a trained archer. Like 2 bolts per minute vs 10 or 12. Plus, there were those English edicts to say 'THOU MUST TRAIN IN YE BOW & ARCHERY EVERY SUNDAY AND HOLIDAY', and basically every boy was required to have a bow and 2 arrows, and every man (17+) have 4 arrows.
Regarding swords, they are very versatile, and can be used in almost all situations (including tight spaces indoors). They can both slash and pierce, and even used as clunky club. Swords have many angles of attack, and are well balanced. Other weapons are more effective in a particular situation, or are cheaper (ie- spears), but the universality of swords is hard to beat. Even if you had a lance or spear, you also had a sword as a backup weapon.

"Two-handed sword, Scottish, mid 16th century, (IX.926). Weight: 5 lb 10oz."
Swords weren't as heavy as you might assume. mostly between 2lbs and 5lbs. Swinging even such a light weight for an extended amount of time is very tiring, so they were as light as possible while still remaining effective. And balanced, of course.
I don't know how much a typical cat weighs. Probably about 6 lbs?

I would say any melee weapon would :/
A bow's "power" is limited by its draw weight and works by augmenting a person's strength with the bow's tension. A melee weapon, especially blunt ones, are pretty much pure strength.

I literally thought you meant this when I read the title:
And after reading the article, all I could think of were lazily designed mobile games, where all the archers are females (and all game icons are a male yelling)
I don't really have a point to this post.

I guess to ask: don't bows vary greatly in draw strength?
