It fires 6 bolts in rapid succession. The file is called v_steambow.mdl.
It was modeled and skinned by Sabre. It requires 35 archery. It operates with a steam chamber that, when the gas is expunged, rotates two axial gears who in turn rotate a main gear that retracts the bowstring clamp along the center metal shaft. The tension built up on the taut bowstring contains enough energy to launch a single bolt when the clamp is released, and then the process is repeated rapidly.
Some would say that if a dwarven smith invented a chainlink of bolts that fed directly onto the firing plate, the steam crossbow would be far superior due to never having to reload.
