The final part of ARR story doesn't make enough sense.

Robin, I'm only going to respond to you one more time as you're beginning to bore me by willingly ignoring any thing but the fact that we can prove why we couldn't stay and fight.

You mentioned something being wrong with my assessment on archers, so I'll go ahead and enlighten every one to the fact that I am an Archer IRL and have been for almost 10 years.

Now it only takes one shot to kill some one if well aimed, in humans it is The Neck (A hard to hit sweet spot and near instant death), The Chest (Takes about 10-15s to die) The Spleen and Liver (Not instantly fatal but will kill via blood loss in an around one Hour) and the Arm pit and Groin (Both of which are difficult and circumstantial "Lucky Shots" that will cause fatal blood loss in about 5-10 minutes).

So then there are plenty of ways to disable and or maim with arrows like when they shot Tancred's knee. One archer wouldn't be able to kill us all but we saw at least 4 aiming for Thancred and any medieval style standing army will have a Dedicated Archer regiment. (The God's Quiver in Gridania being a specialized Archer Corp.) So they had enough archers to do the job. Even if they had one archer per scion they could have taken us down easily. It's the 12th Century equivalent of bringing a knife (or sword in this case) to a gun fight. And even if the PC was a Bard or Archer, that's 1 vs an Army. Still not good odds since they would have been surrounded and over run by ground troops while targeting other archers.

Most of our problems with your posts have been your unwillingness to acknowledge any flaw in your arguments and your unnecessary inclusion of real world politics and propaganda (Which is what I had a personal problem with since I'm from the USA my self and what you were saying about us is as far from the truth as mole men in antarctica) so if you're willing to be civil and adult like we'll happily acknowledge you again. But until then this will be even my last acknowledgement to any of your posts.

I'm sorry, but that's how it is. Good day and Good Luck.
