I seem to be having a random thought day....might reflect the tedious paperwork I am dealing with today
In Game 6 I seem to remember France was looking to develop and introduce breech-loading muskets on a large scale, possibly almost universally. I think the rules (doing this all from memory) stress that such weapons, as well as expensive and time-consuming to develop and build, were prone to jamming etc.
So
1) Does anyone know if France did introduce them on a large scale in G6? If so, any indications if it has been a success?
2) Has anyone else given it a go? if so, did it work?
