    Sorry, I'm sure this is in a readme somewhere, but I just have text fatigue. Halfling bonus to Sling/Thrown...is this fixed yet? I am not seeing it on the character sheet.

    LOL Halfling "Thrown" bonus.

    This reminds of the "trick" magic weapon that was really in the books in AD&D 1st or 2nd Ed. called the "Dwarf Thrower" instead of the real "Dwarven Thrower".

    The Dwarf Thrower, you guessed it, threw the Dwarf when he/she tried to throw the weapon, damaging the Dwarf in the process, and sometimes the target too. The "Dwarven Thrower" was a +2 Warhammer that was +3 in the hands of a Dwarf and returned to them magically, so it was coveted.

    I wouldn't mind seeing a Halfling Thower, perhaps a sling?? :yes:

    In case I was in any way ambiguous, I'm referring to the Halfling racial bonus which grants +1 to hit for all throwing weapons and slings. I guess it's part of the core, and hence unfixable amirite?

    I don't think its fixed, but if mods allow dwarves and gnomes to use racial weapons as martial weapons, it should not be hard to give halflings a +1 bonus to slings and thrown weapons.

    NO

    I checked the 'to hit' bonus of my halfling rogue (level 1)

    +4 dexterity
    +1 size adjustment

    The size adjustment is true for all small races....:thumbsdow

    The halfling thrown weapon and sling +1 'to hit' bonus still appears to be unimplemented in 8.0.1 (Standard). Perhaps this has been deemed unfixable.
