A heavy crossbow takes one combat round to load after being fired. Therefore, a player using any type of heavy crossbow (mundane, magical, Drow, etc.) will only be able to attack every other round. Even if a player has multiple heavy crossbow tokens, the cumbersome nature of this weapon–changing from heavy crossbow to heavy crossbow–will still incur a combat round penalty. Thus, carrying multiple heavy crossbows will have no net benefit (besides being realistically unfeasible).
Bolt
non-magical weapon
This weapon fires standard-size bolts (it cannot be used to fire hand crossbow bolts)
This bolt grants a +1 To Hit bonus vs. all monsters when fired from a full-size (i.e., not hand-size) crossbow. On a successful hit against a Giant, it will deal 1 additional point of damage. The use of this token must be declared (turned in) before sliding the crossbow token.
If this bolt is fired from a dwarven made crossbow at a Giant, the +3 damage bonus to Giants from the Giant stacks with the +1 to hit/damage bonus from this bolt.
This weapon deals an additional 3 damage when it’s used to score a hit against a Giant.
