Weee, totally cool =). Well crossfire is actually a fantasy game.. with
wizards and warriors etc etc. But I am thinking almost anything can go for
a spell sounds, for example, there is a spell called magic bullet. We can
probably get a good gun shot sound for that =).

Well explosion sounds would be very useful. Don't spose you got a flame
thrower? some fire sounds would be nice. After that its anyones guess as
to what might be useable or not. I must point out you are under no
obligation what so ever, so if you can only send us one thing, we will
still be very happy =).

 If you can tell me what point in history this is

No crossbows or swords then? Wouldn't mind some swords fighting sounds.
