Except for javelins, projectiles may not be used to parry, block, or melee. There is no limit to the number that can be carried.

Player Notes
Chango on weapon guidlines:
I know almost all of you will look at these guidlines and say they are too restrictive and prevent you from building whatever god-awful contraption you think will actually work on the field. Just try and remember the rules are written as they are in order to protect you, the player, from the machinations of the lowest common denominator of player within the game, you know, the guy that thinks spent .22 caliber rounds would make a perfect "granular core" for his throwing daggers, trust me, I've seen it happen.
