Re: Crossbows vs. Longbows
I am certain that the ancient crossbow was inferior, I've even seen such on crossbow websites. It was because they didn't have materials that flexed enough to make the bows out of. Modern x-bows flex like crazy. I'm surprised that was an archer earlier saying that thought a long bow was more powerful than crossbow. I assume that includes modern crossbows, which seem to be very sophisticated. But, yes, inferior to a compound bow, I can honestly believe.
