SPECIFICATIONS:
==============
- fully GM weapon specification compliant for arrow device
- - - target's meter typically does 20% direct damage, 15% splash damage
- fires 3 arrows, then reload delay of 3*0.9 = 2.7 seconds delay
- - - the 3 arrows are very slightly spread apart but fire simultaneously
- 60m/sec velocity

RL BALLISTAs:
===========
- were massively lethal, one arrow/bolt/spear would penetrate SEVERAL heavily armored opponents
- - - but took a minute or longer to reload
- this GM implementation is less lethal but faster reloading, in keeping with GM arrow specifications
- smaller RL Ballistas fired arrows/bolts, larger RL Ballistas fired rocks (essentially cannonballs)
- - - so an RL Ballista can be a GM 'arrow' device, or a GM 'great' (rock) device
- adapted from greek weapons, Ballistas became a roman artillery device around 100 BC
