More guns

Great, Nathan! I wanted to put up a pic of the biggest Russian gun but couldn't find a good one...

Mounting rails on a MOW, heh... Brings to mind the ferry they used to have in San Francisco Bay - would take on rail cars from Sausalito and ferry them across the bay to SF... Kinda cool... Here is a website for one of my fave places in SF - the Maritime Museum - which has one of these ferryboats preserved - you are able to walk through it - awesome ship...

Is that a Mary Kay Cosmetics tank?

 

[CatalinaThePirate]

To those who do not understand my reference to MK Cosmetics, there is a company here in the US that recruits women from all over to sell these cosmetics - and when they reach a certain sales goal or sales level, one of the perks is a pink Cadillac. Pink is the Mary Kay color.

Anyhoo, even without my lame attempt at a joke, the pink camo tank is pretty funny! :will

As of now, there's no real way to swivel the guns. As arcs of fire are done on `load-to`-sea time IIRC.[/quote]

Though in my case, mispent present; BF1942 gave me that little snippet o' tank recognition.

Well the Fort Cannons are 32 Pounders If thers a way to get them to your ship that would be easer to figure out right?

Speaking of cannons, I've been reading some goofs & nitpicks for the PotC movie (nitpickers.com), and people are adament about exploding cannon shells (our bombs in the game) not actually being used before the `mid-19th` century. If they were used at all, it was on land and with mortars, not quite cannons.

Just something to consider, if we're talking about cannon types. Possibly, if we're going to hold onto our bombs, we could only make them `fire-able` from higher level or special cannon types.
