That would be carronade in Ironside's case.

semmern SimHQ Senior Member Registered: 03/19/01 Posts: 5981 Loc: Oslo, Norway	I was a bit miffed they only fire 20mm rounds from a gun hidden inside the original carronades. They should move up to full 32-pounder broadsides, THAT will shut the whining bastards up! _________________________ “No Prince or Lord has tomb so proud As he whose flag becomes his shroud.”

Quote: My suggestion, bring in the USS Massachusettes down for a visit and let her rip off some 16 inch gunfire twice a day for about a week or two. Maybe give those losers some kind of perspective. ..I like the idea! (it would be 'up' though as the USS Massachusetts is moored in Fall River, which is south of Boston) I've visited both ships and it was truly an honor to stand on those hallowed decks. Ok, Up. Some 16inc/45 Cal fire should rattle the windows for them. _________________________ SimHq It is a beautiful day... for a Reign of terror!
