Arrows must be launched from a bow and cannot be used as hand weapons. Arrows must be specially constructed following exacting guidelines. Arrows found lying on the battle field may be picked up and used by any archers, but returned to their owners after the battle or upon request. Arrows may not be caught or blocked with anything except a shield. Arrows penetrate all armor except helms.
ANY hit is considered to have caused damage.
Hits to the torso are death, hits to arms or legs render them useless. Javelins are well padded, light-weight spears that may also be used for throwing. Javelins may be picked up and thrown by anyone, but cannot be carried around or used as thrusting spears except by their owner. Thrown, javelins pierce all armor except helms and do damage the same as arrows. White weapons are chunks of left over foam that have been covered in white fabric.
