[Ansteorra-archery] volley

[Sir Morgan Buchanan]

A volley isn't necessarily a bunch of arrows arched high into the air.  That 
is just one kind of volley.  A volley is a simultaneous discharge of 
missiles, nothing more specific.  I would never ever suggest a big arch of 
arrows ala "we can fight in the shade" would work in an SCA context. 
Further, I'd never even suggest they should be blindly shot.  They can be 
aimed.  My thought would be that they'd be aimed at targets all in a general 
vicinity and fired in a volley.  A concentration of fire for ADDED effect, 
as it were.  Keep it coming please, I'm finding this really educational.
