[Ansteorra-archery] [Ansteorra-missile] New Archer Prepping for war

[Eadric Anstapa]

Karl,  everyones NEEDs are different, and personal desires vary even 
more as do an individuals capability.  For instance I avoid running out 
of ammo by making sure I have enough ammo and I also make sure I have 
spare bows.  So my needs in that situation are different than yours.

Lets set aside an individuals needs, desires, and capabilities.  What 
was being asked was what is REQUIRED.  You and Charles both indicated 
that the "Armored Combat" authorization was REQUIRED.  That was/is 
incorrect.  Simple honest mistakes, but incorrect.

Regards,

-EA
