Seeing as how treemen only have 1 agility, does that mean that they can only throw quick passes with halflings or can they attempt short and long passes?

he can attempt the longer ones, remember a 6 is always successful.

the reason to TRY to keep it shorter when possible, though, is that the - range modifiers make it less and less likely to get an "inaccurate" result instead of a "fumble" result

so if I´m making a short pass a 2 is a fumble and on long pass 3 is a fumble etc?

Exactly! The longer the thrown team mate the more likely you are to fumble them. All the more reason to take Accurate and negate some of those penalties.

I'd read up on LRB 5.0 if your group plans on playing with that ruleset. Throw Team mate has changed a lot. We'll see what the final official version says. But as of now you can't do long passes or long bombs and the throw can never be accurate. Something to consider. :roll:

Oh come on now, are you really *that* in love with one turn scoring?

I for one like 'no accurate passes'... I mainly use halflings and goblins as cage breaking ammo, and nothing is more annoying than throwing an inch-perfect pass in the middle of the cage and not landing due to tacklezones.... please let me scatter.
