👉 A board weapon, often referred to as a slingshot or a javelin, is a simple yet effective ranged weapon used historically by various cultures. It consists of a frame, typically made from wood or other durable materials, with a string or cord attached to one end and a projectile, such as a stone, javelin, or arrow, released from the other. When the user pulls back the string, it stores potential energy, which is then released upon the projectile's flight, propelling it forward with considerable speed and accuracy. Board weapons were commonly used in warfare, hunting, and even in sports and games, demonstrating their versatility and effectiveness across different contexts.
