![]() Chinese crossbows are NOT like European ones. And the Chinese crossbow requires almost no skill to use train for a week at loading quickly, figuring out the projectile velocity, and you are good to go. ![]() Only when draw weight+stroke gets too high can you no longer arc your shots (well, you technically still can, you will just be firing so high you will lose all semblance of accuracy). I don't know where people get this idea that you can't volley with crossbows you can with lower draw weight ones just as well as you can a bow at max draw. Originally posted by Haddon:You absolutely can volley a Chinese crossbow. Try and position them behind your men and fire them at the enemy and you're going to do a lot of Friendly Fire damage when your men are locked in combat because they cannot fire over them effectively, but position your ranged units of the left side away from enemy shields and PEW PEW PEW you've gone from stormtrooper plebs to elven gods.Īnyway that's just my idea and I'd honestly make a workshop item for it if I had any idea how to mod anything I hope the devs read this and consider implementing it in someway or maybe a modder sees this and makes something for it cos both would be awesome :) It would mean that using crossbows requires more skill but a higher reward because they are extremely effective. I honestly think that the ability to volley crossbow bolts should simply not be in the game as it completely destroys the immersion. You cannot volley a crossbow bolt over a wall like you could with an arrow (and some mad skillz). This is just simply not possible to do with a weapon that has a massive lack of control over the velocity of the projectile. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS ONLY ONE EXAMPLE, they can fire at much tighter angles than this to the point where they basically shoot the bolt vertically and have it come down again. BUTĬrossbows should NOT be able to fire a volley at angles such as this. The do a heck of a lot of damage and don't really have many drawbacks and I am totally okay with this because it means you get to spend more time using them and they look really cool. Something that really bugs me about this game when it comes to ranged units is the crossbows.
