No seriously, these were actually used in the Middle Ages. Like the arrows from the excellent Army of Darkness, they had a fused charge of gunpowder attached to them. I can't believe CA missed this crazy idea!

Re: Exploding crossbow bolts
While we're at it, let's get the skeleton men from Army of Darkness (7th Voyage of Sinbad and Jason and the Argonauts) into the game as well. It'd also like a cyclops in the game so I can shoot it in the eye and see it go amok.
_________Designed to match Original STW gameplay.
Beta 8 + Beta 8.1 patch + New Maps + Sound add-on + Castles 2

If the game was going to have skeleton soldiers we'd need a steam powered chevy to defend against them.

And if were going to have skeletons we may as well have a hundred foot man made out of iron who has magma for blood!!
