You haven't been reading at the Castle long enough, Barrister.

I *love* the big guns. Anyone's big guns.

I even told the Captain of the New Jersey, off the coast of Lebanon how cool it would be to be a DIVARTY Commander with only *one* vehicle to worry about.

Trying to make me feel envious? Just guessin' but I bet I've clambered through more battleships than you have... because they have Big Guns!

Try again, counselor.


Oh, yeah - *who* made your tubes, eh?

I've had the opportunity to wander around both the Missouri and the Alabama, and tried to imagine how the firing of the big guns would be felt throughout the ship. Love the pic, Eagle1!

Nice booms in the target area, even though normal dispersion was about a grid square.

'Course, there wasn't much left of the grid square after the booms...

I would call this 'projectile envy.'

*yawn*

Says the wife of an Earth Pig. Puh-leeze!

And, Barrister - nominal credit for being a Surface Warrior... but yer still in negative territory for selling out to the Bar!

Oh, and you *do* realize your team has been experimenting with mounting MLRS/ATACMS boxes on ships?

Yes, knew about the NTACAMS, but thought the project had faded out ...
