Rocks, coins, heads, ravens, pieces of dead things, etc. Not weapons or food, usually. Kinda less effective stuff, though I have broken someone's spine with a rock while he tried to run away.

Maybe I should start trying to throw liquids and see how that goes...

I collect severed heads whenever I can, so I always have a lot of those. It makes me think of Minas Tirith in Lord of the Rings, when the Orcs launch a bunch of severed heads out of catapults.


Psychological warfare at its finest. Also biological. Plus, you'd probably die if one of those hit you just right.

For the most part, I throw what ever I can find.

But, situation depending throwing corpses and raising them is quiet interesting..

Nothing beats sneaking into a fortress, Killing someone, Using there corpse as a weapon to kill someone else,
Then getting two zombies out of it.

well besides the standard elven body parts, i use BAZILLION Rocks. The most succesfull anventure ive had was a legendary thrower and if you saw him with a rock of you doom you where pretty much skrewed. a dragon bit hes head off :/

One of my adventurers entered a dragon's cave and found seven of the beasts. Throwing was NOT a good idea with all the fire, gas, lightning and poison flying about. Spear shots to the brain, however....

usually stones, arrows, or bolts. However, the little knives that peasants and necro-tower zombies use have worked wonderfully in my experience.
