Description
A heavy crossbow is a massive, high-draw-weight projectile weapon requiring a mechanical device—like a crank (cranequin) or winch (windlass)—to reload due to its intense tension. Known for high damage, long range, and slow rate of fire, it was historically used in sieges for its ability to pierce plate armor.
