Cannonade vs Long gun -whats the difference?

[morgan terror]

indeed. however, as i said, i think that fileplanet is making one as well and have hijacked one of the old build versions. something interesting about it was that you did start in the 'bathrobe'. but that's all i managed to find out about it.

anyway, what's with those 68 pound cannons? they're definatly programmed in. even maximus' gunpowder mod is taken into account with it.

I was more interested in 42 pound cannons. Can they be obtained without cheating?

And what is "bathrobe"??

I think it´s not neccessary to increase the caliber of cannons already. 42 lb pounders were quite sparse on the ships. I think the game is quite well ballanced and using any extremes abundandly wouldn´t be a good idea. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

Yea, thx Nosie.

before the current system of selecting your character, you would start in the animists outfit, being a sort of improvised bathrobe after which malcom would let you select your new clothes. it was used up to build 12.1.

i don't really want the 68 pound cannons either, but i was rather surprised when finding them in the file. are they actually really used for forts? it sure seems like it. what if you could capture the forts cannons if they would fit on your ship? it would be reasonably hard to get them, and it would be the only way as well, so if some of them would be destroyed you would have to either replace them by 32 pound cannons, continue with decreased firepower, or take over another fort.

68 pound cannons?... Morgan terror, when your ship will sink because it's slight to heavy and unbalanced, you'll understand why thoses monsters weren't used! Come on !
And I personaly agree with Rad, that wouldn't improve the game at all.

42 pound cannons, not 68. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> manowars CAN use 42 pound cannons. it's in their stats.
