There was some discussion about this a few months ago on this list:
the longbow is only used in Fronela, apparently because of the
availability of the right woods. No other human culture of Genertela
has the longbow, so it was dropped off the list. (All IMO and from
memory, so don't take it as gospel)

I liked it when it was proposed on the list, but my GM (a very long
time player with a copy of RQ1) rejected it, because he'd memorized
the old ones. I suspect a lot of long time players may have the same
reaction

A question for the authors of RQ4: given the deliberately limited
distribution of the new draft, do you want it dissected on this list? I
haven't received a copy and can think of good reasons why you may not
want to send one to Australia, since you're paying the costs yourself,
but I'd like to hear what other people say and discuss it. Is this a
problem?
