2. How do you imagine they even have the vanilla ones in the first place.

3. You then proceed to smash through it by saying he needs to add bowyers. 1. I assume advanced bows require skill to craft them. Real life historical examples support this assumption.

2. I imagine vanilla bows to require no special skills. I did not suggest that would require bowyers, not irl, nor in the LOTRModded game.

3. I did not smash through it by saying 'he needs to add bowyers'. Do not twist my words like that. I pointed out that if the Dunlendings (in Tolkien's imaginary world) would use flat bows, they would require bowyers. That does not imply bowyers are required to be implemented in the LOTR Modded game itself, but it would mean there should be some logical reasoning for these wild men to support such skilled craftsmen in their ranks. Purely hypothetical, probing the suggestion of Dunlendings using flat bows. There's no question elves had a civilization advanced enough to support highly skilled smiths and bowyers, resulting in the equipment and armor included the mod. Now I'm questioning whether advanced bows would be a type of equipment that could have been an item for the Dunlendings. That's not smashing or some kind of powerplaying. That's argueing.

the thing is they wouldn't use flat bows :P Dunlendings are based on celts/saxons who used longbows or shortbows but flatbows were more mediterreanian (the ancient greeks used them) a dunlending bow would probably look a lot like a Gondorian or vannila bow but with a bit of a recurve Indeed. Thanks for comprehending my intentions and acting along the spirit of this suggestions forum.
