SheepNES: The Dragon is Awake: MAIN THREAD

I finished it this turn, and had my weapons immediatley upgraded. Of course it was done hastily which explains some of the backing up and exploding. None the less I have machine gun cannons. You would do well to surrender now.

@sheep I have a prince study there, how many turns b4r I got this technology :crazyeye:
 
But what are "autocannon"?
 
An autocannon is a rapid fire projectile weapon. Autocannon often have a larger caliber than a machine gun (i.e., usually 20mm or greater), but there is no maximum or minimum caliber that makes a weapon an autocannon. Usually, autocannons are smaller than a field gun or other artillery. They have mechanisms to automatically load the ammunition and have a faster rate of fire than artillery.
The first known autocannon in a primitive form was invented in the 16th century by Fathullah Shirazi, a Persian-Indian polymath and mechanical engineer, who worked for Akbar the Great in the Mughal Empire. As opposed to the polybolos and repeating crossbows used earlier in ancient Greece and China, respectively, Shirazi's rapid-firing machine was a cast and forged seventeen-barrelled hand cannon.[1][2]
