 A HUGE very slow-loading medieval crossbow from Germany. It's tension is so powerful that you feel it shake after firing. Un-skilled users will find it very hard to reload. Bolts fired from this weapon have a good chance of remaining intact for re-use. 


Notes

  • Reload time is 6000 - (6000 * skill * 0.075, capped at 4500) - (strength * 20). Even assuming 10 archery and 40 strength (heavily buffed character), that's about 7 turns, making it more of an artillery weapon.
  • Formerly known as the Ganz-Rustung.
