mylimo7 409 Share Posted July 24, 2014 "If this new land does not have strong enough ingredients for good blackpowder, then I'll be interested in your designs, if they can manage to hurl a ball from the deck of one ship to another's. Approximately how much will your models weigh and could they fit on the deck of a First Rate?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanrahan 2983 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 "A standard Gun of the old time, would most likely be roughly three Tonnes, that would be a thirty-two pounder, but it could be shrunk to a twenty four, or even a twelve, significantly reducing the weight of the battery. For the question of fit, I'm sure at least a row of light guns could flank both sides of the top desk, and put the heavy cannons for chase up front."

mylimo7 409 Share Posted July 24, 2014 "The supply of a proper explosive powder would be needed for these to work, if you or myself find this lost remedy, I will be more than happy to commission for dozens of 12-Pounder Cannons." (cannons are for just ships right and not actual sieging?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mylimo7 409 Share Posted July 24, 2014 ((In lore apparently, supply was extremely low in Anthos so it made cannons pretty much worthless, if there are the ingredients in the new map then cannons could be a thing again and I'm only really hoping for naval cannons and not city-destroying siege monsters.))

Hanrahan 2983 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 He looks at the two letters. "I think I'll see what the Mali'Aheral want.. then I can get casting the Cannons.." He then waits around for more mail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
