One on one, yes. But remember that you can get 2 hoburg crossbows for 14/8, when
a longbow costs 12/7. It's about two on one. While heavy armour is less common
in the early age, two crossbows are still better than one longbow, especially
after Flaming Arrows get brought in the equation, and that is common in early era.
Still, I would rather find elephants. :-)
