Parrott rifle can fire a shell weighing 45 kg at a distance of approximately 7000 meters. However, analysis of the battles of the 1860's shows that the sighting shot was possible at a distance of no more than 200-300 meters. This is due to the quality of manufacturing barrels of guns, the type of cut, the quality of black powder, a huge weight of guns and primitive sighting system.

Add to that the pitching and rolling and smoke from the shots. Look how many hits has made the Union fleet bombarded Fort Sumter. Note that a huge fort and motionless, as the ships fired still in good weather.

Distance increase is not difficult, but it will not be the American Civil War.

We now make a new scenario for "Ironclads". It will be a conflict between the U.S. and Germany in 1889 for control of the Samoa (What IF). There will be a completely different guns, a distance of battle, the first rapid-fire guns and torpedo boats.

Unfortunately Steam version is not compatible with a High Seas free DLC. You can not install it. We try to resolve this issue with the publisher hosting the game on the Steam.
