Some Thoughts

You never actually define the shape of the curve. You say that it ascends to the apex, then descends, but that might mean this or this or even this.

The max height being nonvariable will lead to super weird situations like an archer firing at an 80 degree angle from the ground to hit someone ten feet in front of him.

It might be nice to create a list of standard game items which should use this rule.
