looking on the wiki and i cant find anything on 2handed weapons? dose such a concept exist here? would crossbows and shields work?

[Zidane]

I believe you need to use bucklers for crossbows, though I don't use crossbowdwarfs.

[Jacob/Lee]

Strangely, as long as the creature can wield it you can use any weapon with a shield. The only exception is a bow, you need 2 hands for those. Crossbows are fine.

[CapnUrist]

Any weapon your dwarves can create is wielded one-handed, including crossbows. Weapons that can't be held in one hand are foreign weapons such as 2-handed swords, pikes, and bows, to name a few.

EDIT: Specifically, whether a weapon can be used one-handedly it detemined by the size of the creature wielding it. For example, kobolds use large daggers in two hands, while dwarves and humans could do so one-handedly.
