How is this new?
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

What I like about all the whining about ranged is that it is historrically accurate.
In 1139 in europe bows and xbows were even forbidden in warfare against other christians because they were not knightly weapons. but it was not possible to keep the moral ban up in warefare.

Sir, wut? Bows were never forbidden afaik, only crossbows were first considered non-christian weapons due to how easy it was for a common peasant to kill a nobleman with no training at all.
Or prove me wrong, and give me some stuff to read so I can re-educate myself.

Add customizable crossbows, where you can add scopes and bayonets. That would be awesome.
