What a delightful surprise this morning, to drop into Skyrim nexus, browse latest mods, then do a quck check of Fallout New Vegas, then (amazed) check Mount and Blade, then (stupified) check World of Tanks. Wow! ALL of the games I play are on the nexus site! (except ship sim :( ) But I don't know how mod friendly that is. Great work, love where you are taking the Nexus. Two thumbs firmly UP!

You see several examples of large Dwemer crossbow/Ballista. In all the time that has passed since then there are no portable crossbows? Really? The technology required is not that great. A vertical peg that catch's the bowstring attached to a pivoting horizontal lever that acts as trigger. Simple ones could easily be made by anyone with basic woodworking skills with nothing more than knife and something to drill a hole. There should be small crossbow "pistols" for thieves, fire for a ranged attack then switch to edged weapons/magic. Large heavy crossbows for castle defense, Big enough, and heavy enough to ensure you don't carry it around everywhere. And Horn mid sized crossbows that would have shorter accurate range than a longbow, but would do double damage at short range.

Ok first off I love FNV, and I have really been getting into using the reloading bench. I seem to have a fairly hard time finding enough rifle powder to keep my 308 hollow points up, so I end up breaking down a lot of ammo. Well I'm up to level 15, and sitting on 500 rounds of .308 hollow point hand loaded ammo (which rocks) but I have a garbage can absolutely full of brass. 9mm, 10mm, 357, 44mag, 5mm, 5.56 mm, shotgun hulls, you name it I have thousands of empty cases that I will never fill. What I am looking for is ideally a simple mod/tool that I could buy that would let me "shred" those cases back down to basic brass. That brass could then be used with the reloading bench to make new cases in calibers that I can use or sell. Anyone interested? Can't afford to sell the farm or give you my house, at my age chances of getting a first born son are non existent. However if you could pull this off I would tell the world that you are the best Mod Maker EVER. :) FYI I am using the "Better Ammo crafting" mod that lets me breakdown scrap into brass, then use that brass to make cases or primers.
