Out of curiosity, what was your loss rate like?
I lost 1 out of 12 to breakage. For two days of frequent use, I find that to be pretty darn good.
We're pretty sure we found all the blunts which ended up in the fort walls. _________________ Recognise anyone? Flame Warriors |

I had none but in saying that mine weren't used in the fort battle only for stuff earlier on in the day. One that I did see broken was just due to the dead dying ontop of it bloody corpse... _________________ did they beat the drums slowly

I lost 2 out of 24 arrows. One got stood on by a 'bystander' during the night archery and the other broke somehow during combat on saturday morning. My arrows were heavily used by about half a dozen different people throughout the weekend, including the fort battle. I think that's a pretty good result actually.
I know of perhaps 6 to 8 arrows all up that were broken during NAAMA - out of about 230 odd that were in use. I didn't hear of any bolts that got broken.

I lost three. All trodden on. That was two more than I lost at the last Battle of Hastings. You kiwis must have bigger feet than Brits ! _________________ A Dane Axe beats two aces anytime. |
