Where does it say that?
Magnakai Discipline section says +3 COMBAT SKILL, Grandmaster Discipline
section only states a bonus of no CS loss when fighting bare-handed and
both Equipment sections specifically says +3 "when using the Bow".
I cant see any section that gives you bonuses to missile weapons other
than bow/arrow except the Mentora Improvement bonus. (OK maybe I missed
it somewhere).
