Pulling Handbow v Crossbow RR ranks from across the Kingdoms using the Scores Site I see the following numbers of Archers who have a 100+ average in their Kingdom's RR.<br><br>Middle has the most crossbows, Atlantia is the most lopsided in favor of crossbows.<br>
Aethelmearc has the most handbows, An Tir is the most lopsided in favor of handbows.<br><br>Handbow / Crossbow - Kingdom<br>10 / 6 - Aethelmearc<br>5 / 1 - An Tir<br>1 / 2 - Ansteorra<br>3 / 0 - Artemisia<br>2 / 11 - Atlantia<br>

perusing the RR scores list I see that all Grand Bowmen Elites are crossbow<br>
shooters. There is only 1 archer listed as a Grand Bowman Elite who is NOT<br>
a crossbow shooter, although he is now perverted to the dark side and listed<br>
again as a Grand Bowman Elite with the Devil's instrument. (Hey! It's a<br>
friendly joke!) So there exists a question embedded in this, why is it,<br>
seemingly, only crossbowmen make it to the Grand Bowman Elite<br>
classification? I realize every single on who is currently listed there on<br>
the list is a highly dedicated archer and practices, practices, practices<br>
and nurtures their crossbow perhaps more than some of their family members.<br>
But the question remains.<br>
<br>
Perhaps we could discuss this. Not looking for any diabolical, devious, or<br>
catastrophic solutions here, just a friendly discussion.<br>
