They're by far the most powerful factions in the game, with all but one of their units having armor second only to mithril and fighting their axethrower units being worse than fighting an Isengard Uruk Berserker on potent vodka. To horn-bows I would say maybe - it's implied that the one (1) bow a dwarf used that didn't come from Beorn, the one Ithilion referenced, came from Lake-Town. And even if dwarven hornbows were a thing, I would say that absolutely zero units should use it, save maybe - maybe - the civilian. And I'm completely 100% against dwarven crossbows. They're an evil (and Vitner Guard I guess) thing, and should remain exclusively so (like with decent bows and good factions :-P), as they have an industrial vibe, which is typically an evil thing. I think that ranged combat should remain the main (and only tbh) weakness of the dwarves, and that it should not be removed by bows or crossbows.
