There hasn't been much posted here for a while so I thought I'd contribute.
One of the things I find frustrating when playing as an Archer (or any class for that matter) is the large amounts of unstackable amunition that you acquire. My suggested solution is as follows.
In place of the missle slot have a quiver (or pouch for rocks) that can contain multiple variants of one type of amunition.
Example: Quiver contains: 2 arrows of slaying, 6 mirthril arrows, 1 arrow of darkness and 10 barbed arrows of hunting.
Then when using a bow the arrow used is randomly selected from those in the quiver so the actual arrow fired could be any one of the types above.
This to me seams more realistic than the current syetem used in ADOM and I think an improvement. Quivers could have a limited capacity say 30 arrows and could maybe be an item by themselves?
