A small crossbow sized for one hand has been left here.
This hand crossbow is a medium-sized crossbow made of steel.

A steel bolt with a fiery head has been left here.
This medium-sized tanso steel bladed bolt is for use with a crossbow.

You cannot find any ammunition!

[HP:100%] [ME:100%] [PE: 31%]

The ammunition is not made for this weapon.

Am I missing something?

But the crossbow looks as though it was enlarged to medium?

Right, my bad.

The mistake is that crossbows don't take bolts for ammo, but quarels.

Some coders put them in as needing bolts, others have put in quarels.
I've used both before now without trouble.

HAND crossbows use darts. Quarrels and bolts might be interchanged depending on size.

At first the scout will only be able to create basic arrows, but as he increases in experience, more advanced arrows become available. Types of arrows include hunting, battle, archery and barbed. Eventually scouts can also use this skill to craft ammunition for crossbows. These include round and bladed bolts for normal crossbows, darts used for hand crossbows and siege bolts used for siege crossbows.


silly rabbit darts are for hand crossbows.


Additionally, it should probably specify that in help crossbow.
