[dirty foot]

I've played one game where, if you had two shields you'd actually tie one on your back, taking it out when the other shield was bashed useless, but it still acted like a shield, so sometimes you'd take it out and wonder where those 5 arrows came from. That would be nice here too, with shots in the back often fracturing your spine.

Mount & Blade?
I used to play Warband during the closed beta - Good times!

I liked shooting people with a crossbow several hundred feet away. Goodtimes.

That game is so much fun, it should be illegal.

The crossbow in that game is not as lethal as it should be, but I guess it IS still a fantasy game.

Just want to say that as a legendary thrower, I've never been able to hit a prone target.

theres currently a glitch with sneaking people using ranged against prone targets, makes it impossible to hit them even if your standing right next to them.

and my thought on going prone was go prone for one turn so they are more likely to miss so even if you don't have much dodge or block skill you have a chance of not being shot in the face

The only real way I see to deal with a bowman is to bypass all his buddies and choke him, you dont need to kill him as long as he nods out you can usually take care of everyone else and get back to him later

See, I just move in and spear him once in each arm. No more crossbow, no more problems.

Yeah, I usually go for damage to both arms, or at least damage to a leg so that the archer gets slowed down a bit (fewer arrows, yay!). I don't care if I've got two bandit leaders a few steps behind me, one with a masterpiece steel 2h sword and the other with a masterpiece steel pike, the archer is attacked FIRST!.
