Isn't this more of an outgrowth or her respective specialty? RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 07/10/2009 08:40:46 PM
In this case, being an archer, she tends to think in terms of long-range weaponry and missile weapons utilizing distance and stealth to best effect before thinking of supply lines, cavalry or melee fighting. She knows about those other things, but what she knows best involves bows, arrows and, probably back in the AoL, canons, laser rifles/shocklances and guns.
