Purpose of the Cannon
Originally conceived as an anti-infantry armament, Cannon from the 14th century and beyond have transcended their initial purpose, showcasing remarkable utility in the context of sieges as they are capable of leveling entire fortresses with ease. However, their prowess extends beyond offensive sieges, as they serve as a formidable deterrent against invading forces when employed in defense.
The fort of Target Location presents a prime opportunity to manifest the dual functionality and might of these cannons. Bolstering the fortification's defensive capabilities by arming it with these cannons, or utilizing the cannons against the fort itself, bombarding its defensive walls, are both excellent ways to showcase the cannons' power. While the latter option may weaken the fort's capacity to withstand invaders, the knowledge gleaned from this field experiment could prove instrumental in advancing our military technology.
