I'm afraid it's far from lore, Ulthuan heirloom and Brettonian gifts to the "Feyfolk" make their metal armaments. It is even stated that Asrai sometimes use arrow tips made of stone, cause their metal forging is inferior.

Guess stone warheads is good justification as to why they do so poorly against armour. My I ask where that's written? Most recent army book? I always thought "Armour to Arrowheads" would be the most useful spell. Couple of dead dwarfs and you'd be set for years :D

I do like OP's attitude towards fluff and power list though.

Great showing at teh co,petition, and again thankyou for taking the time to try something a bit different and also writig up these reports!.

I suppose also that living in an enchanted wood would cut down teh need for metal artifacts, Spites are likely to help with any defensive needs and flint tools would be more then enough to help with the various limited productions.

Arrows could be either flint tipped, or simply hardened with fire and then charmed. Most of the troops GG would be shooting at who arent hurt by either type would also probably be in medium or heavy armour.

Love your approach to lore in list building, well done!
