Training
Every ranged weapon requires training. A character with no plausible background with one must spend time learning it before it can be used effectively; the Referee decides what a character's background already covers.
Range
Medium range imposes a -2 penalty to hit; Long range imposes -4.
Ammunition
Ammunition costs 5bp each for arrows and crossbows, and 2bp for sling bullets.
