Shortbow

Simple Ranged Weapon

Shortbows are simple ranged weapons.

As their name implies, they are smaller than longbows, with correspondingly less range and penetration. Over time longbows were developed as people gave bows longer staves in an effort to increase their range, though other found ways of increasing the flexibility of bows without increasing the length of their staves which is when composite bows originated.
