Description[]

A concerted volley of arrows is bad enough. When the arrows are on fire, it is time to run.

Though the crossbow has many advantages, the traditional bow is a weapon of grace and power with a venerable history. Archery was listed as one of the Six Noble Arts, and has been practised by emperors and sages. A well-made bow in skilled hands is also a devastating weapon on the battlefield. To increase the archer's effectiveness by firing flaming arrows might almost seem a step too far, were it not so effective.
