Ah, but that is the trick. They make you THINK it's heaven by giving you 70 virgins. Once the virgins run out though, what's left?

Sounds an awful lot like you've been playing Runescape, cause I don't know too many other games where armour causes you to be more affected by damaging magic or where bows take any more of a penalty against heavy armour than any other weapon. In any case, the fighter can only use those advatanges if he can get close enough to the offending archer/mage. An archer would use his keen senses to hear the fighter with his loud armour coming and take him out with, if not normal, magic lighting arrows. The mage (we must assume he's high level, since a low level mage is almost worthless in battle)would see him coming with his intelligence, or would see into the future weeks ahead of time and be ready for the fighter. [/QUOTE]Yeah a bit.. But i do know that arrows would have a hard time getting through the armour. Knights can also throw their weapons too making them an archer and a knight [img]smile.gif[/img] Then after the clock hits 3, we all shake hands and go in the nearest pub to watch England getting thwarted by Australia.

[/QUOTE]This is why any well trained archer will have a good supply of lightning or piercing arrows handy for just such an occasion. Also, since I don't follow football (American or European), I say we go Rammstein concert and rock out.

Look, I don't watch any sport whatsoever. SO the Rammstein offer stands.
