Speaking of the ammo metre, I notice it represents a loaded musket with a digit, "1", like most shooters with magazine-fed weapons. I wonder will there be multiple-shot weapons in the future, like Nock guns, double-barrel rifles, or even William Dupree's dreaded double-volley carbine (14 barrels)?

Not a real suggestion

In other words, will the number ever exceed 1?

Bluehawk! you are to modern my man.

I read the Nock gun would cause injury to all but the strongest of men who fired it and dread to think how dangerous this one would be to the average man of the era using this.

But would be nice if we had some multi barreled weapons for variety sake now for some elites/militia/cavalry.

That would be interesting, although historically unjustifiable (I say while sat here adding Bluehawk's double Nock gun to my mod).

[Bluehawk]

Firing one set of barrels at a time, you would feel less recoil than a Nock gun because of the inertia of the extra weight. Firing both sets at once however....

Wow.. love how this keeps getting updated!!  Looks amazing the running is great too!

Brock, what is the name of this artillery monstrosity?

[Bluehawk]

Andrey Nartov's "rotating battery". 44 3-lber mortar barrels that fired in sets of five or six at a time, allowing for eight discharges before it needed to be reloaded. It was never approved for field-use, since the carriage couldn't withstand the weight and recoils.
