Governor is back!

24th June 1574

"Take aim!"

With a single sergeant's order, all the recruits raised their rifles and pointed them at the set of the moving targets. Creating this contraption was quite easy on the surface. Just by making a few ditches, filling them with simple, wooden tracks and covering the top with simple planks and a bit of earth, one could move upright poles with a target hanged down on them with a single move on the operating lever. By connecting all the mechanisms to the power output of a single steam horse, all the targets would suddenly start moving on the predesigned trajectories, allowing my recruits to train how to fight against specific formations.

"FIRE!"

With a booming sound of multiple rifles going off at once, nearly a third of the targets were swept from their respective supporting poles, falling heavily to the ground.

"TAKE AIM!"
