I had a thought that some peasants might be leading a horse, not riding but leading one. Not that I know how that'd work... I saw we need (...) (25 years ago, 5-May-00, to lugnet.castle)

Also, there is an old Fabuland "Saddlebags" piece that came with a motorcycle (I think?) that works great for this (funny, saddlebags work for making saddlebags? Who would've thought!).

| | | | (...) Only gripe I've got with a bow and arrow is that there's always an arrow nocked and drawn. Peasants may have known how to use a bow and arrow, but they generally didn't wander through town with an arrow ready to let fly. :) I'd like to see (...) (25 years ago, 5-May-00, to lugnet.castle)

Crossbows are probably easier to hit things with, but they're big and heavy and not something you'd want to carry around all day. (...) True. On the other hand, I regard (...)

| | | | (...) Actually, I believe the accuracy of longbows is much greater than that of crossbows. Crossbows are kind of crude and brute force - no finesse. However, because they have much more force (the bolts are heavy), they are used to penetrate armour. (...) (25 years ago, 6-May-00, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | (...) I'm just wondering why a villager would carry around a crossbow? First, they're way out their price range, and second, they're too complicated. A bow is pretty easy to make, and is free. Crossbows were pretty much used in the military. Jeff is (...) (25 years ago, 6-May-00, to lugnet.castle)
