France
•
14m
Here we take up the mad minute challenge with the two main belligerents of the Franco-Prussian war, both needle-fire and both using what we now call caseless ammunition. Not ejector needed and no need to pick up your brass. Who will win this epic dual?
A tutorial for the new chassepot cartidge will be released soon in English, French AND German on the other platforms, and the method for creating the Dreyse ammo can be found on the excellent Papercartridges channel.
