Default Re: Crossbows vs. Longbows

Obviously there are situations where the longbow proves it's mettle as opposed to times when it does not. However, history is written by the victors and for the most part, the British Empire wrote most of the history. Since the longbow was seen as one of it's pride, it's no surprise that it achieves it's fame in strategy guides. =)
