Normally I try to refrain from trolling, but you guys are all mental. Like was already pointed out, this is a highly advanced society, we don't need rocks or bows.
Now instead of living in caves, lets try going the other direction.
Rifle projection rounds that home in on the target mid flight and adjust to hit people around corners.
Weapons that are all in one inclusive, like phasers. You can set for single shot, burst fire, full auto or nuclear bomb. Maybe a few more settings, but those things can do just about anything.
Automated defense firing weapons. If you can see a target on your HUD, when it appears in front of you then you automatically shoot. (I know this would suck for an FPS, but this is a legitimate weapon these people would actually invent) Same goes for suit based rear facing defense units and such. Think like Iron Man.
Speaking of iron man, what about that laser pulse grid thing that chops up everything in the second movie. That seems legit.
So yea, Tony Stark was in a cave and made super awesome stuff. Lets not have super awesome stuff and then hit each other with rocks.
That is all.

Basically what you are asking here is a long range grenade launcher. I could possibly see that. Firing EMP or Explosive grenades at range for low PG requirement. However bows are old fashion.
Hey, your name is Tau, those guys are cool in Warhammer, and they also have a cool kit. How about instead of a grenade launcher its a Drone launcher and the drones are explosive. You launch your "grenade drone" and then it homes in and blows up the enemy.
Much cooler and high tech then a bow. |

But really, the only reasons I can see for a crossbow are.
It really would be low PG/CPU
It can go over cover where most guns would run into cover
Silent.
Crossbows are lowtech, Even Mims have super high tech ships, they just aren't as super super as Caldari.
1. There are other low PG/CPU options
2. Grenades already fill this role nicely
3. Actually all Railguns should be silent. Its just electricity and magnetics, if you have driven in a electric car you know they are silent. |
