In the case of Gulf Wars, every archer on the field without a white
diamond should expect to be hit just as hard as any other combatant on
the field.  That is why the white diamond is there, to let people know
that you will die without a fuss.  No white diamond fighter ever gets to
call "light".  If you do not wear a white diamond expect a smack on the
leg so you can't run away then a smack on the head for a goodnight
kiss.  Oh and remember if you don't have a backup weapon, you cannot
fire your bow/crossbow within the specified range 10/15feet so if anyone
gets inside your range...well lets say you might as well have a white
diamond.  Or block the shots with your bow.

Have Fun
