I knew someone would have problems with that statement
. What I meant is not that you can't add crossbows (or halberds for that matter) because it doesn't say they existed in the lore, but rather that the fact that Jackson included them in his films is no valid (or strong, if you prefer) argument to include them in a submod that as the lore as the main source of inspiration. If you want to add any type of equipement that is not mentioned in the books (and I'm afraid you'll have to
), be my guest, but make it so because the mod team decides that would make sense to have it in the mod they envision, not just because they were present in the films
.
