Civilopedia
The crossbow was the preferred weapon of the peasants in the First Rebellion. The weapon is fairly simple to produce in bulk and frighteningly effective at piercing armour, which meant that the peasants finally could take up the fight with the knights and men-at-arms that made up the fist of the Royalist armies. The mechanism is simple: a winch tightens the bow to a tautness that is practically unachievable by muscle power alone. The projectile is a small bolt, rather like a truncated arrow. The result is a weapon that fires straight and true with little effort and with little training required.
Strategy Text
Upgrade your Archers to Crossbowman if strong anti-Melee attackers are needed. They don't start with city defense bonuses as archers do, but they have access to the full City Garrison promotion line so they are good at taking cities defended by Warriors and Axemen and then become formidable defensive units in those same cities.
