- Crossbow doesn't appear in the Ranged Weapons list, I had to duplicate the Bow entry and use crossbow stats to be able to add a crossbow.
- The Long Sword requires d8 Strength for some unknown reason. Didn't find a fix for this, since it appears all weapons with Str+D8 damage require D8 Strength, although there's no requirement like this in the setting. Hero Lab adds it to the armory, but only with Str+D6 damage - Minor issue, but some of the Arcane Background: Miracles allow players to pick powers they don't have the rank requirements for, if those are the signature powers. This can be done in HL, but it throws some warnings. |

For the Crossbow - Which Time Periods are selected? A crossbow is a medieval ranged weapon, and should be there if the time period is selected in the Configure Hero window.
For the Longsword - The longsword is rated at Str + d8, which makes it's minimum strength a d8. It's a standard rule for melee weapons in Savage Worlds (Explorer's Edition, p42; Savage Worlds Deluxe, p48). If a character with a Strength die of d6 equips it, they would only get Str + d6 damage because they don't meet the minimum Strength (assuming their Str die is d6). I'm hoping to get time look into the Signature Power issue this weekend. |

The rule for Longsword it's something I forgot, I was expecting a note in the weapon list in the Hellfrost book, like for the bows (min Str D6 or something) |

Odd. It shows up for me. Does it show up in the Editor if you try to create a copy of a Ranged Weapon?
