Unit Description
Pictish Mounted Crossbows are the only missile cavalry unit in the Viking Invasion campaign. This gives the Picts a nice counter to the heavy infantry like Huscarles, allowing them to harrass, tire, and decimate those units. They also do a respectable job against heavy cavalry.

Pictish Mounted Crossbows use the same crossbow as the foot Crossbowmen. This gives them good range, damage, and armour piercing capability.
