Default Shooting incurs no fatigue?

Seeing that you can fire arrows all day long without incuring any fatigue, I wonder if this is WAD or just an oversight?

WAD, seeing as how all ranged weapons have limited ammo, so they will run out and the units end up in melee if the combat lasts for a long time.

Shooting a bow is like playing a harp, same movement, not tiring at all :-D

It's a mighty pathetic archer that gets overly fatigued before getting all of his twenty arrows off. I do not see this being a problem, but if IW does, they will obviously trample all over me and fix it. The issue is open for discussion, so if people have differing opinions, they are welcome to voice them.

Yeah, while I'm sure firing a bow is tiring, I'm also sure it can't compare to the exhaustion of melee combat, so approximating it as zero fatigue seems reasonable to me.

Well, how about casting spells? It should be even less tiring than firing a bow. At least when you watch Harry Potter, he never seems to sweat :-)
