Sling

Two-handed ancient ranged weapon

Hands: 2H
Size: Small
Tech: Ancient
Type: Ranged
Range: Medium
Damage: +1 Blunt
Properties: Improvised

A strip of cloth or leather used to spin a rock or lead ball, then released to throw. Often with some sort of shallow pouch to hold the ball. Quite an effective weapon in skilled hands, and it has the advantage that it can be improvised. While it is technically possible to use a sling with one hand, it takes two hands to load.
