The Hobbit Slinger!

Health: 20.

Attack Strength: 5.

Armor: Hobbit slinger armor (see bellow).

Weapon: Sling, Hobbit Bow, Hobbit short sword at close range.

Mount: Either Shire Poney or Boar (usually Shire Poney).

Extra Notes: They can become "invisible" like Rangers, and "teleport" like Mirkwood Scouts. This is because Hobbits have the skills mentioned above. This balances out, because they would be VERY expensive, and think about the rest of the Hobbit faction.....

Hobbit slinger armor:

Crafted like Leather armor on a Hobbit crafting table (yup), it is dark brown with highlights of Shire-grass-green, and the same shape as Dunlending armor. It does a little more protection than leather armor.

Hobbit bow:

Crafted on a Hobbit crafting table with sticks and string, it is a little faster than the Mirkwood bow, the same damage as an orc bow, and with VERY short range. It looks like a Gondorian bow, but smaller and darker.

Hobbit short sword:

Crafted with a stick and two iron ingots on a Hobbit crafting table, it is as fast as a dagger, and does 6.5 damage, with a bit less durability than a Gondorian sword. It makes no sense for a slinger to have a bow, i would say make two separate units, Hobbit slinger and Hobbit hunter, one with a bow and the other with a sling, sling would be weaker then a bow but it would ignore a portion of the armor (historically slings were very good at penetrationg armor).
