Yeah, you're right there. Rangers/archers could maybe gain a bonus to their bow skills when wearing lighter armour. I think it would be good if they, in general, make it so certain armours link well with certain types of weapons by adding bonuses to those skills. So for example, no armour or light armour could increase the damage or chance to hit with a bow, mage robes and weapons could have benefits specifically designed to benefit the mage, and heavy armour and large weapons could need a higher strength before you can use them and offer penalties to things like magic and ranged attacks.
Edit: Seeing as we are discussing armour as well and it kind of ties in with the discussion about weapons, I've editted the title of the thread to include discussions about armour as well. It seems more sensible than requesting that everyone stops discussing armour in this thread and start a new one. If anyone has a problem with this or would prefer a seperate thread for armour then PM me and I'll change it back
