I recently started reading Captain Ewald's journal, which mentions the use of Amusettes. They seem to be large rifle/ light artillery piece with the ability of firing a 1/2 pound to a 1 pound ball with a max range of about 500 yards. They were mostly used by Jaegers against enemy artillery or fortified structures.

I wondering what everyone thoughts were on this... should this be rated in the PDT file ?
