Just to be That Nerd: Bows and guns existed alongside each other for centuries. It was only around the 16-1700s I think that guns started becoming more popular (and then mostly because they're a lot easier to use). It wasn't until the mid-1800s that guns started being able to outperform a trained archer. The problem, however, is that a 'trained archer' means someone who trained since they could walk, almost, and had to be in ridiculously good shape. Something I heard to illustrate this is "if you want a well-trained archer, you start training his grandfather".

Was the price of arrows also a factor? It seems a well-made arrow would be more expensive than whatever they fired from old guns

@@pablovirus I'm very sketchy on the economics of that. So if you go back far enough, the question overwhelmingly was 'what could your local village produce?' and for a long while that was arrows, so there was just no alternative. Later on (I forget the year) local blacksmiths did learn how to make gunpowder and bullets. How do the two compare against each other? I don't know, but I do know it accelerated the shift to guns, because the easy option now also had ammo available. Can't really say anything more precise than that :/

@@pablovirus Not significantly compared to the ease of use of a gun. Comparing firearms and *bows* is a bit of an unfair comparison, because they're quite different weapons used by very different groups; a better comparison would be comparing early firearms to crossbows. Both are relatively easy compared to a bow to learn (just point and shoot) and thus could be handed en masse to conscripts. Once firearms became cheaper and more powerful than average crossbows, it made them largely redundant, well before bows stopped being used.

Robin hood is lured to a cabin and killed in the end, maybe saving his wife who was kidnapped possibly but with the last of his strength he fires an arrow and asks to be buried where it lands. Little johns there with him and carries him away into myth Edit: Maybe it's poison from a poison arrow. but the story is similar to what I said above, not sure, this is the type of thing I used to look up but that builds too much reliance on that feature and makes you useless in person conversation

Why doesn't Harstem (an other terrans) build a raven when playing against zerg? Given that Ravens are cheaper, wouldn't it be a huge help to clear creep? It cost 300 minerals for each scan while a Raven only cost 100/200. It does prevent you from building another unit but the value of the Raven seems large. Never understood this.

(game 2) Thinking ahead but not actually making you feel comfortable in a bigger macro game. The enemy player probably thought an attack is needed since his reapers/cyclone weren't going to work out but happened to only last for that attack of your reapers. Also, could have dropped workers/marines with dropship on the siege-up tanks at your base idk. Anyways EZ lost and EZ won.

You build a sentry the moment you realize this is a proxy marauder build, start a stargate, when the main attack hits you evacuate and sacrifice the low ground, then force field the ramp. If the terran pulls the boys like Harstem did, that's GG. If not, you're still dealing with an opponent that invested heavily in aggression so as long as you evacuated you'll be fine.
