Although crossbows have many advantages--locking string catches, superior shot
strength, easy to learn--they don't compare to the longbow when speed and range are
critical.
Heavy Crossbow
These crossbows were stockpiled by Archibald just prior to the Succession War for use
against his brother. As with most decisions involving death, Archibald chose wisely. These
crossbows are amongst the best in the land.
Ideal Crossbow
Equipped with a hand crank and shaft sights, these exceptional crossbows are superior
to all that have come before. Just where they are coming from is a mystery at this
time
Crude Bow
A simple longbow constructed of common materials and uninspired design.
Longbow
A higher quality long bow designed after the elven long bow, but without the elven
skill.
Elven Longbow
Etched initials at the base of the bow indicate this bow was made by master bowyer Ivan
Selving's workshop during the Timber Wars of the late 600's.
Composite Bow
Composite bows are made of a variety of materials and pieces, instead of a single piece
of wood. They are generally more flexible and powerful than regular bows.
Griffin Bow
The grisly materials used in this bow--a griffin's skull and tough spine--make for a
surprisingly tough and powerful bow. Needless to say, the materials are hard to harvest,
and griffins fight back much harder than Yew trees.
