Which in this context, is the Azuran long rifle. Yes, i have claimed the invention.

Really, that kind of weak isn't it, your the only one with the ability to fight me on the high seas, a war with the West might be too easy now that i think about it

Eh, we ain't bad. My southern islands are my main naval islands, which are pumping out ships like crazy.

Your best bet would be a pre-emptive strike, but hey, why am i giving the enemy advice.

i em pretty sure anyone can claim the invention, in use from 1700-1900 we are starting at 1800 its been 100 years therefore it would have spread

My entire nation is pumping out ships faster then you can say 'oh sh*t'

Nah, i claimed it first! Azuran hand-crafted weaponry at its finest!

"In war, numbers alone confer no advantage. Do not advance relying on sheer military power."

doesnt mean your the only one with it as websites stat it was from in use from 1700- 1900 it would have spread to others nations, you might have made the first one, doesn't mean other people don't have it,
'The longrifle was developed on the American frontier in southeastern Pennsylvania, in the early 1700s' this is from Wikipedia sure it might not be completely reliable but its still accurate enough to say it was made before 1800

nice quote with no person who said the quote

Well, you don't have it yet, considering my nation has had little contact with yours and you have never acquired the technology from me through trade or war.

I didn't think there would be a need, everybody knows who Sun Tzu is

could have spread to another nation from that nation to another, or i found it when i had troops on Umaes

Cote azure wrote:I didn't think there would be a need, everybody knows who Sun Tzu is

Based on the quote i was thinking more Napolean not Sun Tzu, also thats a quote from a time were skills was key on the battle field, with a gun anyone can kill

No way, unless a sharpshooter dropped his,which would be crazy. Soldiers always take care of their weapons.

It could have spread to other western countries, but if it did, it did so in small amounts. Unlikely that it ever appeared in your hands.

It still applies. You should never rely on numbers alone.

also remember how i em allied to 2 island nations of your coast, i could have exchange technology's with them, showed them some advanced medicine i have in exchange i get Blueprints for long rifles and i make my own

tell that to Joseph Stalin, wait if you did you would be put in a gulag ... can you go back in time to tell him that

dude, nobody on the islands makes long rifles. It's done on the mainland country, where Azuran hunters develpoed it.

The Azuran government saw the value of such tehnology, and only special blacksmiths make these weapons.

He also got aid from the U.S. in forms of FOOD, medical supplies, and armored veichles.

Oh, and lost 20 million people from trying that. Not to mention the winter and malnourished german army was a factor

... i wasnt talking about your islands look on the map mate, i was talking about Dorig Strasko and Dhairam-Deiarma, ships could have crashed there during rough seas

But they still won by hurling men at the germans

You won't get them. Not now at least. When we go war, and kill some of my sharpshooters (which is hard, because they are usually out of musket firing range), and collect enough rifles to reverse engineer, then TRAIN gunsmiths to reproduce the tech, then you can acquire it. Until then, that would be hard. Long rifles are also very hard to load, and take longer to load. They are more fragile than muskets, and you would need to train soldiers to use the new firearm.

All of which would take a years to train and field.

Had they not been given food and supplies, there would have been no bodies to hurl at them in the first place.

were talking about russia here, there are also people to hurl at the enemy
