The Crossbow SRM is a weapon that featured exclusively in the ''[[MechAssault]]'' series of videogames. Crossbows are the standard short-range missile used by most of the BattleMechs in this series. BattleMechs may have up to 4 Crossbows in their arsenal. Unlike their long-range counterpart ([[Javelin LRM]]), these missiles reload and fire rapidly while doing less damage per missile. It is worth noting that these missiles can be upgraded to fire a 2x or 3x volley per shot, which increases their usefulness over the [[Javelin LRM]] at close range. | The Crossbow SRM is a weapon that featured exclusively in the ''[[MechAssault]]'' series of videogames.
