New and Revised Weapons

A selection of new and revised weapons for D&D 3.5 is written below.

One thing that's eluding me, is how many bolts to put in a typical case for repeating crossbow, given all the abilities and effects out there that offer additional attacks. I really want a full case of bolts to facilitate at least one full attack in nearly any situation.

Crossbow, Great: A great crossbow requires two hands to use effectively. You draw a great crossbow back by turning a winch. Loading a great crossbow is a full-round action that provokes an attack of opportunity. You cannot shoot or load a great crossbow of your size with one hand at all.

Crossbow, Repeating: A repeating crossbow (of any type) holds 6 crossbow bolts. As long as it holds bolts, you can reload it by pulling the reloading lever (a free action). Loading a new case of 6 bolts is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity, and requires two hands. In all other ways, shooting a repeating crossbow works the same as shooting a standard crossbow of the same type.
