Full Unit Profile

 * Shooting:
 * Crossbow: Short Range 2. Long Range 4. Effect halved at long range. Less effective than firearms. Effect not reduced against armor.


 * Impact: None


 * Melee: None

Gameplay
One-for-one, crossbows are a better weapon than bows considering their long range and armor-piercing capability. However, unlike bowmen they can't shoot overhead, which complicates placement and tactics. Since they can't shoot overhead the intuitive thing to do is put them in front, but then again they have no Melee or Impact Capabilities and are especially vulnerable to cavalry.
