Did you say cannister or cannolis?
You can get farther with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.

Not in this release. Interesting idea for the future though.

I don't think that batteries ran out of ammo too often. Something that would be interesting for the game is cassions for each battery. Now that is something to think about. Attach a cassion to each battery and there you go.

I don't know how beneficial sharing ammo would be. In heated artillery firing just about all my guns in a battery run out at about the same time. Besides how would that work mechanically? Realistically, would a gun stop firing, wheel its casson to the starved gun with both of those guns out of action for a while.
Myself, I'd much rather have an indicator on a gun's flag that its runnin low on ammo and is resupplyable. I always keep my TC'd wagons near the batteries.

We just need some cassons for each battery.
