The armored guys are now trying out a machine-loaded crossbow. It is pulled tight with a crank. The string is then locked in place with a trigger. A large arrow gets loaded in. The whole thing swivels freely, so you can aim it at anything. The arrows it shoots are impressively large. You could take down an armored knight or a horse with one of these.
They were letting folks try firing it, but before I could give it a shot, they also set off their canon, which terrified my dog so much that we had to leave. alas.
