Re: The black bow of botulf
Black bows are excellent for assassins at a certain stage of the game. Pretty well restricts their use to nations that get both competitively priced assassins and death magic, unfortunately.
An argument can be made for churning out a whole lot of black bows and equiping a dozen or more indie commanders with them. It's expensive in terms of gems but has a low research requirement and can be very effective against enemies that depend on relatively small numbers of elite units. Hardly a best-choice scenario but can be made to work.
If you can steal the "fire at mages" orders from the troll mage (one of bogus' crew) they are flat-out excellent battlefield weapons, but some people consider that cheating.

Re: The black bow of botulf
They can also be very economic ways to discourage teleporting thugs from raiding you.
