Mounted Crossbows were added to the game and are a type of defensive turrets. They can be built on the ground or on top of Defensive Walls. By researching Crossbow Turret Strings and Composite Runners you can increase the power of Mounted Crossbows.

The range, damage, accuracy, and speed of a turret is modified by the operator's related skills as well as the height difference between the turret and its target. Turrets will be more effective if fired from above.

This building cannot be upgraded to Mounted Crossbow MkII. In order to switch a mounted crossbow to an improved mounted crossbow, players must dismantle their existing mounted crossbow, then build the desired one.

This crossbow uses 0 power, except when upgraded with the light, which requires 4 more power.
