This weekend I first played the 100 years war. This includes new arbalestiers with and arbalest as weapon. I thought this weapon, and it looks also like that, that this was a better weapon as the regular cross bow. But in fact it has less abilities as the cross bow.

Was this intended or what are your opinions on that?

I believe it was. The arbalestiers are killers if the enemy has to approach you, but useless if you are chasing down other units. If they were allowed to shoot on the move, even at one hex and at -1d, they would be very powerful. I like how one needs to plan well to use them effectively.
