Huh? It's quite traditional for mobs to throw cobblestones, not far-fetched at all. And you'd better believe volleys of them aren't to be taken lightly; a good throw can crack a man's skull, or a horse's. Not a lot of range there but pretty hefty stopping power. That having been said, do I consider the cobblestown attack to be more symbol than substance. I'm OK with it not being very effective; it's more to establish what kinds of fighters these are. Maybe dialing down the hit probability a bit would address your concerns? -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
