Re: Strategic Fantasy Crossover RPG
Actually I did not know that we got three free Fort levels, just means I need to pay for one level then.
The location on the map is perfect, thank you.
And my troop numbers are going up in just a few minutes.

I would point out that in the 1600s, there already existed cannon foundaries in Constantinople, Venice, Genoese or any power that worth a damn then.

Re: Strategic Fantasy Crossover RPG
There's plenty of difference between 1600 artillery and 250 fucking milimeter breechloading guns. The Armstrong guns installed on the Warrior were 180 milimeter 110 pounders. If Zor can produce his WWI battleship guns and the ammunition necessary, it means he can steamroll every single power on the continent since he's two hundred years ahead from everybody else in industrialization. He pretty much admitted to having mass produceable percussion cap fired brass ammunition for his rifles, too.Fingolfin_Noldor wrote: I would point out that in the 1600s, there already existed cannon foundaries in Constantinople, Venice, Genoese or any power that worth a damn then.

BTW, I calced my current provinces at 40+40 (me and denmark), since the eight conquered ones are going to be sucking up 200 points per turn, rather than paying it...
Which gives me 16 000 points, 10 000 is spent on army upkeed.
That means I can equip all my archers wif gunz and bring them up to strieltsi level. Hah!
