The Crossbow, while having the advantage of two ammo types, is actually not very good. This was one of the first toys to be able to shoot more than two types of ammo, however it only has about 75% of the power of the other Large arms. However what it lacks in distance it mysteriously makes up for in accuracy.

The Crossbow's only advantage is it can fire mroe than one ammo type.

The Crossbow may be difficult for smaller children to fire due to its size.
