The tip shall be secured to the shaft with filament tape that completely covers the foam, then covered with yellow tape. The back end of the bolt may have a short (less than 2 inches (51mm) in length) piece of PVC pipe (or other similar non-brittle, non-metallic, lightweight material), that is securely attached to reinforce this area. Bolts must be stable in flight or have fletching made from flexible material to make them stable in flight. They must be at least 48 inches (1.22m) in length. Bolts made with Siloflex that is not yellow in colour must have their shafts and striking surfaces covered completely with yellow tape, except for an area that is just large enough to show a full set of the specifications imprinted on the pipe's surface. Shafts made from yellow Siloflex may not be covered with tape, and the markings must be visible. Note: 1/2 tennis balls may be attached to the foam tip to cover the striking surface as long as they are an integral part of the tip and there remains at least 1 inch (25.4mm) of progressive give after the 1/2 tennis ball is attached.
	# Specialty siege ammunition is intended to simulate specialty ammunition (e.g., flaming oil pots or flaming javelins) or effect weapons (e.g., diseased animal corpses or the heads of decapitated messengers). Specialty missiles will have damage determined in the scenario rules. Most effect weapons will have little or no damage potential, and therefore should be used sparingly. Specialty siege ammunition may be used as long as it does not exceed the weight or construction limitations of the approved ammunitions.		# Specialty siege ammunition is intended to simulate specialty ammunition (e.g., flaming oil pots or flaming javelins) or effect weapons (e.g., diseased animal corpses or the heads of decapitated messengers).
