A strong-in-the-arm crossbow from Dandy Longlegs in Menzo

It is a light crossbow in the clubs category of weapons.
It can be picked up, held, held in both hands.
It cannot be worn with any other armour.
It is medium in size and would fit any body type.
A specialty crossbow imported from the Strong-in-the-arm crossbow
manufacturers. It has a one-handed hilt and firing trigger affixed to the
bottom of the frame.

When I try to hold it i get the following:-

You need to wield a strong-in-the-arm crossbow in both hands.


Should this be able to be wielded one handed? I think it should.

As I understand it, all crossbows in-game must be wielded in two hands, even though some say you can hold it in one.

Aldren is right. Code requires both hands for all ranged weapons. I think except slings, but don't hold me to that one!
