Sling (TCG)

The Sling was a length of braided cord with a pouch for holding a stone. The wielder swang the stone within the sling for momentum, then released one end of the sling to propel the stone a great distance. Many samurai underestimated a sling's usefulness, considering it a peasant weapon at best and a toy at worst. But in the right hands, a sling's range was greater than that of a bow, and a slung stone could kill an unarmored foe instantly on impact. In addition to being popular among rōnin and peasants, the sling was favored by the Sparrow Clan due to its inexpensive production and the ease of acquiring ammunition. Path of Waves, p. 110
