Throwing is one of the combat skills in The Age of Decadence.
Often overlooked because they lack power of their mechanically-assisted cousins, throwing weapons make up for their shorter range and power with their greater speed and finesse. A warrior skilled with throwing weapons can literally barrage an opponent with missiles.
See here for a list of throwing weapons.
The skill is also rarely used in text interactions for throwing grappling hooks, such as in stealing from Camilla's house in Teron.
