Hi,

I wanted to check my understanding of how firing, then getting a new arrow to fire works. Assuming they have an arrow cocked, my assumption is:

Round 1 - Fire
Round 2 - Draw new arrow
Round 3 - Fire
etc

Is this correct? I was a little unsure as to whether getting a new arrow would be a full action. If it is, would you be allowed to try to draw and fire in the same round with -2 penalties?

Thanks in advance,

Wibbs

Loading a single round of ammunition in a weapon (like nocking an arrow in a bow) is typically a free action. So a bow can be fired every round without a MAP.
