"Elemental" Crossbows

Or more specifically, crossbows that create their own ammo, mostly from the Wavedancer, but Elbrion's blade-crossbows as well.

To bring them in line with Mestys's recent changes as posted elsewhere, these now require they be COCKed before firing them, and the blade-crossbow's had their pseudo cock standardized to normal mechanics.

On a positive note, GM Mestys reports he squashed the bug with additional RT in FIRE for these types of weapons.

While we regret changing something, it was needed to be consistent in our application of mechanics, and given their abilities, still impressive weapons of war.

Slay many!
