    The alphabet problem.

    So... when you fire ammo from your weapon, you type
    f0
    f1
    or
    f2
    etc
    or just a simple
    h
    or if repeating
    n


    When you throw ammo (or weapons or knives or ANYTHING), you type
    va
    vb

    Because it lists your "throwable" ammo anew
    as
    a) flask
    b) dagger
    c) pebbles/shots

    rather than as inventory slots


    The problem is once you run out of 'throwable" objects
    It reverts to straight up asking you to throw inventory

    So you might run into this scenario:

    <va>
    The large white snake is targeted.
    The large white snake hisses furiously.
    The large white snake flees in terror.
    You re-arrange your quiver.
    You have no more Iron Shots (1d4) (+0,+0) (0)
    <va>
    Your Necromantic Tome [Into the Shadows] hits the large white snake.
    You have no more Necromantic Tomes (a).
    The Necromantic Tome [Into the Shadows] breaks


    This can be very deliberating for a young nec....

    That's what's called a learning opportunity
    One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
