How does the Orcish Crossbow work in melee, and does a Dagger add dice to it?
The rulebook says the Orcish Crossbow is both melee and ranged and that reloading applies only to its Ranged Actions.

In melee the Orcish Crossbow is a melee weapon, so it needs no reload and every adjacent Zombie can be attacked in one Melee Action. A Dagger's bonus die applies when the crossbow is used in melee. When it fires at range, it needs a reload after each shot if you want to fire again in the same Round, and only the ranged bonuses apply.
