Bowcaster (Revised) is a Light Weapon (Character) from Revised A New Hope.
Card Text
Use X Force to deploy on your warrior, where X = (7 – warrior’s power). X cannot fall below 1. May target a character or creature using X Force. Draw destiny. Add 1 if targeting a character, 2 if targeting a creature. Target hit if total destiny > defense value.
Lore
Hand-crafted weapon of choice among Wookiees. Fires explosive 'quarrels' (which look like blaster bolts). Requires great strength to use. Extra ammo carried on bandoleers.
Joke
The lore admits that the bowcaster's explosive "quarrels" look like blaster bolts, because on screen its shots are ordinary glowing bolts; the explanation and the film's effects do not quite match. See Jokes.
