This is your weapon. It is an arbalest crossbow with a goat leg cocking mechanism. It is able to send a steel tipped bolt through 2mm of steel plate at 25 meters and is effective against unarmored targets at ranges of up to 150 meters.

okay?

But what does it taste like?

That's great, but I heard that Englishmen wield these super-bows made of yew wood that can kill six knights in a minute from half a mile away.

>>44539543
Thanks! I never recived a gift through the internet before.

>>44539543

It costs about two hundred gold coins, and you can find it in the "ranged weapons" department at any local weaponsmith.

>>44539543
Oh hey they had these in skyrim
Where's the lever thing that makes it reload?

go kill yourself.

But does it blend?

>>44539587
Its the horses anon. They shoot the horses, knight falls down, gets trampled and becomes an unexpected speed-bump for other knights.

Plus the super-bows lost effectiveness as time went by.
>>
>>44541360
alright got it, superbows lost power over time.
That means you need to get a new superbow every year from the magicians, thus having always a fully powered superbow

Sire, I improved upon the design.

I think so at least. There's something missing, but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions?

I'll just take the longbow, thanks.

Yeah, and I'll bet we all shoot when you shout "FIRE" too.

Variable quality of armor, not bows losing their strength.

Crappy munitions plate would stop arrows at long range but they could still kill horses. At close range bows could pen it.

Hardened white plate though - that will bounce 180lb draw war bows at point blank.

This is my crossbow. There are many like it but this one is mine...
