A combustion chamber, so basically we're trying an inferiour gun here? I don't think so. The idea of replacing the winch has merit, but you've got to think that the steam powered mechanism for doing so would be prohibitively large. Maybe on a ballista, but to keep the thing carryable?

Axel, I believe we have all admitted that such a weapon is wholy impracticle if not impossible.

Then why consider it at all? Let's not be silly here, if a weapon can't work in reality then why allow it in the game?

Because you're not the DM. Celyddon is. It is his world, and if he wants a steam powered crossbow, he is welcome to include one.

I hate scheduling conflicts... It's what's had me without a session for two weeks as well... When you have another session, let us know how it works out.
