>>65160539>start training crossbow early>outshoot even the best bowmenit's really that easy
>>65160577every bow nerd should have an apple placed on his own head and then forced to pick between an archer or a crossbowman to shoot at it
>>65160539>"It's just as good" crosbowfags seething with their low rate of fire and formation density
>>65161434>hits the hoarding ceiling and breaks the nock
>>65161434>gets tired after 15 shots>can't shoot at full power with any real accuracy anymore>Crossbow chad keeps chugging with with his pulley assisted draw
>>65160539>in skilledYeah, we ain't have time for that.Give me shock conscription of endless hordes of peasants any day. Numbers > """""""skills""""""", simple as.
