Your Current Tech List says you only have 1910 tech.

I couldn't find a suitable picture. But it is not a railway gun. It is, like the Big Bertha, an emplacement gun that has to be carried in pieces for transport.

Cut into pieces, horse and truck towed.

Was it paid for in a sim report? Something that weighs 144 tons probebly required a great deal of effort to produce, not something that would be usually covered by the army corps production, IMHO.

I have 300tons of material and $3 mil free in my sim report for the purpose of such works. But I have yet to specifically say what artillery devices they go into.

The second one is a RR gun, but I found pictures somewhere of it as an emplacement gun... but I liked the RR gun pic. :)

They would fall in the siege gun category so they should be 500 tons and $4 for a single battery of those "Lina" or "Dora-dora" guns. 300 tons and $3 is not enough for one battery.

Yes, but I was talking about building them in single parts, not in a battery.

Walter

I think for simplicity, you should try and cut a bit here and there so you have enough for a battery rather than messing around with single units.
