Artillery Upgrades
 

 

Research improved additions to gunpowder formula

Using various additions to improve gunpowder combustion efficiency increased the range of artillery fire. However, this method permitted only a slight improvement, as the further intensification of detonations resulted in the barrel's destruction.

Location: Academy
Availability: Becomes available after building an artillery depot.
Action: Researching improved additions to the gunpowder formula allows you to increase your artillery's range of fire by 5%. After researching this technology, your artillery (cannon, mortars, howitzers, multi-barrelled cannon, vessels, towers) will fire 5% farther. For instance, this will allow your cannon to shell enemy cannon while they are still unable to return fire. This technology does not affect units with handguns.
