We advanced on two fronts and lost in swamps because of ambushes. I suppose ambishes have nothing to do with range but with proper positioning. Furthermore we gain the possibilities to assemble an entirel new class of soldiers from this eventually. The rifles are not so bad dont get me wrong but maybe we need to broaden our army instead of competing for the best rifle...

but i would still like to compliment your style of discussion, and from your point of view you are right and your arguments are valid. I merely disagree with you. keep up the good spirit and our nation will easily win.

We can also make a few revision of our rifles to introduce new techniques while developing new weapon types, then in a few years make a new battle rifle that combines all of them into a super weapon!  We will have variety and superior firepower.

I am open to any constructive criticism you might have of the chariot.

Trying to combine all the rifles into one general purpose weapon is... well, it will not work, at all.

The chariot will lead to tanks eventually in my opinion. If we made it we should als create a small Light cannon for the chariot

Yeah, a chariot isn't going to lead to tans, far too much of a difference. We'll need trucks first before we can consider even making an armoured car, much less a tank.

All we need is engines.

We'd be better off making an entire armoured car in that case then. since we don't just need an engine but we also the transmission too. Add in proper vulcanised rubber tyres and we might have an armoured car that's workable.

As far as a gearbox goes, we could build some kind of peddle chariot. A decent gearing system on an armoured chariot would leave us only needing an alternative to manpower to turn the peddles after all.

Good luck peddling a ton or so of steel though, and keeping that speed at a constant. Really, the chariot idea is impractical to the point of not even being workable.

Switching to the armoured chariot. Anything to break the monotony of generic rifle after generic rifle. Will switch back to grenade if it gains more traction. Our army needs versatility. And an introduction into armoured warfare.

Except the one thing of that design that's vital yet un-armoured, the horses, are completely exposed to enemy fire.Those chariots aren't going to be useful at all. They'll get bogged in the mud of the swamps, the enemy cannons will KO the wheels in the villages and the ruins are too tight for it to be used.

The chariot is gonna be as useful as the Arstotzkan tank was in wands race. In that it will not be useful at all.
