In one of the homepages of the cho-ku-no is speculation that indeed peasant boys were used for the weapon, but only to refill the arrow magazine.
What?

An auto-loader firing peasants ?


Sorry, couldn't resist


Downloaded the mod from Illwinter to have a look at it.
Is v0.1 the latest Version? There are some issues methinks:

Xbow attack (=prec) is 0. Unit prec is 3.
Shouldn't this be -5 and 10 resp. ??

While they are fired from a crossbow and have steel tips, they are too low-powered to be armor-piercing (in reality).
Game-wise, DAM 8AP is just too much for a weapon with lousy damage. Better make that 8 standard.

Would be nice if we could add poison damage one day ...
Maybe setting a number of attacks for a weapon will then work as well...
