Weapon AC Bonuses

The AC bonuses of a weapon represent how easy it is to defend or ward off attacks with that weapon. This AC modifier only applies to mêlée attacks; no weapon changes ranged AC. When wielding two weapons, the modifiers do not stack; instead the better of the two modifiers is used.

Ammunition

Projectile weapons use ammunition: arrows (for bows), bolts (for crossbows), or sling bullets (for slings). When using a bow, a character can draw ammunition for 1 AP; crossbows require an action for reloading - slings reload for free when a hand is free, and for 2 AP when no hands are. Generally speaking, ammunition that hits its target is destroyed or rendered useless, while normal ammunition that misses has a 50% chance of being destroyed or lost. This is opposed to thrown weapons, which are assumed to be always retrievable, barring extraordinary circumstances.

For Bows and Crossbows, ammunition must be fitted to the appropriate weapon, and unless otherwise specified, they may not fire ammunition made for another weapon type. All longbows fire longbow arrows, which a shortbow may not fire. Slings, on the other hand, accept all bullets equally.
