Ranged combat requires ammunition, the type of which will vary depending 
on the kind of ranged weapon being employed, as follows:

Weapon:          Ammo:
--------------------------------------
Bow              Arrows
Sling            Bullets
Thunderstick     Slugs
Crossbow         Bolts
Small Throwing   Small Throwing Ammo
Medium Throwing  Medium Throwing Ammo
Large Throwing   Large Throwing Ammo


The description of the ammunition will indicate which type of ammunition
it is (HELP LOOK). Ammunition can be produced by various skills or spells,
as well as being purchased from certain shops.

Weapon class for ranged combat is determined by the ammunition for throwing
weapons but by the weapon for other weapons. Damage type and damage bonus
are deterined by the ammunition in all cases. Ammunition may break when
fired or thrown, but high quality ammunition is more durable than low
quality ammunition, and thrown ammunition is more durable than other forms
of ammunition.
