abstract
  • Mankind has been throwing and launching things since time immemorial (or at least the Ancient Era). But they haven't put an awful lot of thought in how they were doing it, just using the latest invention and learning on the fly. But when thousands of bullets and tens of cannonballs started flying each minute on the battlefield, the generals thought that maybe it would be worthwhile to apply some of these fancy new scientific methods in order to teach the men to shoot better. This is later called 'Ballistics'. And their efforts are soon rewarded by the invention of a small, much more maneuverable cannon - the Field Cannon, which is far superior than the crossbow, because it blows up the thing it hits.
