Real artillery will probably be designed for a decent payload, not just a small, fast projectile. On the other hand, it will be mounted for indirect fire. Call it Max 24,000, IFR 60,000, with RAP 90,000. I'm thinking of a 200mm medium or long electromag. Regards, Onno PS: I just noticed that police-derived pigeons will have good sound baffling to preserve the sound sleep of the cizitens, while cruise-missile-derived pigeons need IR/emission cloaking to avoid little SAMs. _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
