Dat perspective in the cover art.
Reminds me of inception.
hmm a 460mm is definitely a large gun.
Here's a 155mm gun:
155mm Railroad Gun
Modern Tanks such as M1A2 have a 37mm cannon that fires either a HEAT (High-Explosive Anti-Tank) which is excellent against infantry and light armor and in the case that you need to clear out a structure explosively or APFSDS (Armour-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot) more commonly known as a SABOT (pronounced: say-bo) which is used to pierce the armor of a tank and break components in a tank to disable it.
Your 460mm shell would be a heavy thing as a 155mm shell can be handled by one individual using both hands. a 155mm shell weighs around 43.2 kg. so if math is all the same a 460mm shell would weigh almost 172.8 kg (~380lbs). If you need another comparison consider this 406mm (16 inch) cannon.
Quoting some guy named hybrid who may or may not be correct "...note on 16 inch shells, .... while these types of shells are more designed to penetrate hard targets, they have a huge lethal radius, anything within 150 yards of the shell burst is dead from concussion alone, they create a crater well over 30 ft in diameter and... 20-25 ft deep (although these numbers might even be on the smaller side). Past concussion blast radius anyone standing has an extremely good chance of going blind or deaf .... None of this even counts the shrapnel coverage area."
So yeah big hunkin cannon that is 18.1102 inches in diameter. so about 2 inches bigger than an Iowa class Battleship's main armament.
BTW side note. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SILENCED WEAPON!!! The only thing you can do is suppress a weapon. So its a SUPPRESSOR not a "Silencer". Because even with a suppressor on a weapon you still have to take into account the action of the weapon, i.e. the bolt assembly, as well as the gases released through the end of the weapon.
2146710 First off, that picture is not of a 155mm, this is a 155. What you have posted is most likely either a 10 or 12in gun, I'm not sure as it is difficult for me to tell from the angle of the picture.
In addition, modern tanks do not have 37mm cannons. Most are either 100, 105 or 120mm. Furthermore, the weight of a 16in shell is nearly three thousand pounds for the AP and almost two thousand for the HC.
Finally, the caliber of gun in this story is the same as those used on the Yamato, which is 18.1 inches and could out-range the 16in guns on the Iowa class battleships.
2168848 yeah you were right about the M1 not having 37mm, I was at school when I wrote it so some of it may not be accurate, but the railroad gun is a 155mm
2186964 Nope, I did some digging and that gun is actually a 274mm railroad gun. Which was captured by men of the US Seventh Army in Rentwertshausen, Germany, April 1945. Here's a link to the website.
2187915 meh i tried,but like i said I was at school and didn't have the time to check myself
2229962 I'm glad your liking it. The doors to stables are just thick slabs of steel and so can take a direct hit with little damage but something like an advanced precision laser, cutting torch or whatever could cut through the steel with its focused energy, like the Krogoth's high powered Railguns
Um
Flatscreen TV's? Cellphones? In a Fallout setting? Not possible with their technology. Not adhering to the frame of "Fallout".
Transistors, the device that allowed us the shrink electronic technology to the size and capacity we have today, were only invented in the year before the Great War in the Fallout series.
Keep in mind this is Fallout Equestria, they don't have electricity. They have Arcane Spark. AKA Magic. It's not electricity.
The Krogoth is quickly becoming an excellent character in his own right. With thoughts, motivations, and desires
Appletart should have taken the new helmet.
