Arrows come in a number of different shapes and styles.
The most common type has the normal wedge-shaped head.

* The armor piercer has a narrow spike-head and is designed to punch through different types of armor.

* The  frog crotch  arrowhead forms a v, the inner edge of which is sharp.
These are used to cut standards, armor cords, and inflict terrible wounds on things caught between the jaws.
To successfully use the cutting action, the character must successfully hit a specific point.

* The humming bulb arrow is fitted with a carved wooden head that whistles loudly when fired.
The sound can be heard up to one mile away.
It is normally used for signaling.
The humming bulb can also be fitted with oil soaked cloth or straw and used as a fire arrow.
When used this way, it causes 1-3 points of damage from the impact && flame.
It also starts fires in flammable materials unless put out quickly.

* The leaf head arrow is fitted with a broad head designed to cause greater injury.
These arrowheads are often carved or pierced with artistic designs, making them works of art in themselves.
