	Crossbow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Crossbow bolts can be fitted with a variety of heads, but the most common is a four-sided point called a quarrel.
		This crossbow shows one of the simpler mechanisms for drawing a powerful crossbow: A strap is attached to the archer's belt, a hook on the end of the strap engaging the bowstring.
		Crossbows were used in European warfare from roughly 800 to 1500 A.D. They almost completely superseded hand bows in many European armies in the twelfth century for a number of reasons.

	Quarrel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A quarrel is the technical term for the most common head of a crossbow bolt, so called on account of its square shape (from the Latin quadrus -- "a square").
		Bolts fall at the same rate, independent of the speed of flight.
		Arrows, in contrast, depend on gaining lift in flight, and hence have their centre of balance at a point about 9% of their length forward of their center.

	Crossbow
		Crossbows were actively being used from 800 to 1500 A.D. Pope Urban II banned the crossbow's use against Christians in 1097, and the Second Lateran Council did the same in 1139.
		About 1400 the use of the crossbow changed, with the butt end of the stock being placed on the shoulder for accuracy.
		The prod of a crossbow was made of wood or composite materials until the middle of the 15th century.

	Chinese Repeating Crossbow
		This crossbow was one of the earliest repeating weapons.
		The design of crossbow really needs a steam-bent bow with a little more curve to it, to reduce tension (and thus friction) when the bow is uncocked and the magazine is sliding forwards.
		Surveys the history of the crossbow with comparisons to the longbow, shortbow and handgun; the construction and management of medieval and modern crossbows; and the ancient and medieval siege engines.

	Crossbow FAQ
		Crossbows were more useful for hunting and siegecraft than in open battle, where their slow rate of fire was a serious handicap.
		Bolts are about 6" long and made of unfletched wood; their metal points are threaded like a coarse woodscrew to facilitate removal from the lead plates used as backstops.
		Bolt weight is a careful compromise, usually determined at the factory through destructive testing, and it would be most cost-effective to accept their recommendation.

	Crossbow - Cantr II Wiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		A crossbow consists of a prod (similar in appearance to a bow) mounted on a stock similar to a rifle stock, which has a mechanism to wind and shoot its bolts.
		This consistent performance was part of what made the crossbow historically a significant force in warfare.
		This prevents them from snagging on the crossbow nut as they are shot.

		Crossbows have been maligned, hated, outlawed, and condemned at all stages of history by one group or another.
		If the groove is deep for 3 fletch bolts, then the edges along which the bolt rides must be fairly sharp with as few dings and nicks as possible.
		Until the middle 1400’s, crossbow prods (the “bow” part of a crossbow) were either simple wood prods for relatively light bows or composite prods of horn, sinew and wood.

	ABD Crossbow Bolts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		"Fellwalker" ABD crossbow bolts began active experimental combat use in Caid in January of 1998 and were approved for SCA-wide use at the April 1999 BOD meeting after successful multikingdom use at the Estrella War.
		The Fellwalker ABD bolt is designed to be used with golftube crossbows, which in most places have an upper limit of 840 inch pounds and an SCA maximum of 1000 inch pounds.
		As such, ABD bolts for golftube bows should be safe for use with that maximum.

		FACT: In states with generous crossbow seasons, the success rate of crossbow hunters and vertical bow hunters are virtually the same and the deer populations continue to flourish.
		The crossbow requires twice the amount of draw weight because the power stroke (draw length) is half as long as that of the compound bow.
		The public image of crossbows stems from the lack of knowledge of a crossbow’s limited capabilities, as well as the myths touted by those who oppose their use.

	Crossbow bolts as physics items? - Halflife2.net
		They act pretty much like big crossbow bolts, pinning people to walls and such, and you can pick em back up using the gravity gun and use em as many times as you like.
		My theory of why Valve didnt do it is because they wanted a long-range sniping weapon affected by gravity, to show off that part of their engine, but it had to be more powerful than the regular guns because you got it later in the game.
		Well, having a reusable crossbow bolt would have meant the player could complete the game with just a crossbow bolt and the gravity gun, which Valve obviously didn't want, as they wanted people to be frugal with ammunition, and try all the weapons.

		Rakshasas are from indian myth but I don't know the backstory on their crossbow bolt vulnerability except that it has been there since 1e.
		By having it common knowledge that a 1st level cleric with a crossbow can kill the toughest Rakshasa with one shot, you completely pull the teeth on what should be a powerful monster and make them (quite literally) a joke.
		Think of the crossbow bolt in broad terms, as a weakness that allows even the humblest warrior to kill a mighty demon in the right circumstances.
