Horse Archery(Skill)

3.4.5 Horse Archery
The ability to use Bows from horseback. The Maximum EL that a Character can use when firing from a mount is equal to his Horse Archery EL or his EL with the weapon, whichever is less.

EXAMPLE — An archer has EL9 in Horse Archery and EL5 with the Composite Bow. With a Composite Bow, he will fire using an EL of 5 when mounted.

The Character’s Horse Archery skill is subtracted from the modifier listed in the Combat section of Book Two for firing from a Moving Mount.

EXAMPLE — The Archer above will subtract 9 from the modifier listed for the Composite Bow. Were he EL9 with that bow he would subtract his full EL of 9 in Horse Archery.
