General
- Ranged weapons include handbows and crossbows used for combat archery, throwing weapons, and mock gunnery gear (such as rubber band guns).
- The maximum propulsive force is measured using the weapon's primary means of creating propulsive force to the projectile.
- Bows, mock gunnery gear and the like must have a mechanism where the propulsive force can be easily measured by a marshal on the field, using equipment that is readily available in the Society (e.g., a bow poundage gauge).
