I'm still wondering how any Sarr army has ever won a battle. Peasants with crossbows must be a terrible shock.
Then again, I also prefer the assumption that dwarves don't just make two-handed weapons their own size because their tiny little arms can't reach across their chests. :roll:
I can learn a disarm spell for just about the same amount of training that it takes to use a crossbow, and you should be able to close that range within the 5 seconds a disarm gets you before they'd be ready to fight again. I'm sure your average peasant hunting Sarr can be prepared for these things.
