Bows and Magic For Faerie Folk

So as I mix BX with mid-1st ed with a few things from third I also allow a elf to choose druid or wizard or cleric spells and that defines what sort of elf are they. I do it with bards too. Worked very well. But I have toyed with making spell lists just for them and bards and mix up all three. I also have a Mentalist List (psionics and illusion magic) which I plan for Shamen to use and this worked with bards and elves. So this is a whole separate tradition of faerie magic which a elf or changeling may choose instead. Possibly dark elf versions a bit creepier. Some spells visually different to human ones

Bow Spot Rules (A Bit Elfy)

Damage Bonus on Bows?
- as I use DEX bonus for all hits mods and STR bonus for all damage melee or missile has worked fine (STR only damages no hit bonus)
-thrown weapons are fine but you need extra STR bows or crossbows to use bonus
STR 13-15 +1 Bonus double cost
STR 16-17 +2 Bonus five times cost
STR 18-19 +3 Bonus twenty times cost
-For every STR bonus of bow is better than what your STR bonus is -1 to use and half speed
-There are WP that let you use DEX instead of STR to dam or STR instead of DX to hit

Firing Into Groups - attack best AC of group
-Fire into group of 5 persons in 1" square +1 randomly hit one in group
-Fire into group of 10 persons in 2x1"square +2 randomly hit one in group
-Fire into army or massed military unit +3 randomly hit one in group
-This affects regulars and in close formations but not say skirmishers in a open formation
-A close group being shot at might use shield walls and get a improved AC
-A WP will specialize in this for extra +2 vs group attacks

Bright Faerie Spell List for Elves
I let the celestial high elves use cleric spell list,
they are kin of the stars in the celestial city

Plane shifting eldren my mentalist (psionics) list
they are strange alien observers almost extinct

Forest elves use druid lists
They are proletariat elves of woods, forests and farmlands

Grey elves are the elven magi who use wizardry lists
They are more urban and interested in arkane science than nature

This is a spell list for most common sylvan wood elves and functions for most others. It is a mix of wizardry and druidry. Possibly elf cultists use these lists or some goblins. Dark elf spells more about darkness, undeath and cursing and often reversed but mostly the same.
