Descrição
Perhaps the humblest of projectile weapons, the sling is a length of braided cord with a pouch for holding a stone. The wielder swings the stone within the sling for momentum, then releases one end of the sling to propel the stone a great distance. Many samurai underestimate a sling’s usefulness, considering it a peasant weapon at best and a toy at worst. But in the right hands, a sling’s range is greater than that of a bow, and a slung stone can kill an unarmored foe instantly on impact. In addition to being popular among rōnin and peasants, the sling is favored by the Sparrow Clan due to its inexpensive production and the ease of acquiring ammunition.
