[QUOTE="VariSami, post: 5991373, member: 6698543"] I'd say that is a bit overpowered. Especially if you consider it as a player race. The way I'd put it is: replace the Weapon Focus with a simple bonus like the one they had with thrown weapons prior. Now it's crossbow-based. Rapid reload is mostly important at mid to high levels when they gain extra attacks. I'd probably have them pick the feat instead of just giving it away: few races allow instant feats other than profiencies. Which reminds me: racial profiency (or familiarity) with the repeater crossbow? That way you could emulate Rapid Reload easily. Having them qualify for Fighter Feats kind of makes the Fighter class useless for them. Of course you'd still get feats but you'd also get the Fighter's "class abilities" at will (since they're normally limited to them and Warblades). The way I'd approach this would probably be just allowing them 1 Fighter bonus feat on level 1. You know, a bit like Braveheart Halflings but more limited in scope.
