[Ansteorra-archery] Un-allowed blunts

[Donnchadh Beag mac Griogair]

The different Baldars were really what I was interested in since we 
allow SOME types of Baldar blunts, but not all of them.  I wanted them 
to be able to see some of the old types so they would recognize them 
when they came across them.
