Matt,
Thanks for your response, I wrote my last one as you were posting yours, so I missed what you wrote. But I think the idea that the wooden shaft breaking away from the metal part is extremely feasable. The shaft is what guided the pilla through flight and without it, would be extremely wobbly in the air, and probably not even hit something properly.
I also now understand how they destroy shields forcing the enemy to discard them making them more vulnerable to the next Pilla volley or CQC. OK, this all makes great sense thanks.
I guess im still kinda confused about the battle re-enactments... oh well, I would like to hear from people that actually use these those, it seems very interesting.
On a side note, am I spelling Pillum correctly? Is it 1 L or 2? Prior to writing this I looked it up online and found vague references to it, but they spelled it with 2 L's. But I notice its being spelled with 1 here. Clarification please
