How about a magazine-fed gun that fires at 550 RPM from 50-round box magazines? Or you could just use a Gatling gun?

@Legion X51

Ok yeah, your right, I'll just change it to a gattling gun.

Time's are Changing - Steampunk NRP set in the 1800s

Which is about 166 rounds per a second. So yeah, your gun is ridiculous Vanguardian.

@duck55223

I said no where near 166 Rounds per a second, but I don't wanna argue, especially with the gm.
Would 50 per second be ok?

Time's are Changing - Steampunk NRP set in the 1800s

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah, the 200 bullets per a second thing is ridiculous.

@duck55223

Not 200 in 1 second.
It is 100 in 2 seconds.
So 200 in 4 seconds.

I still have trouble with you thinking that having a gun with a nominal RPM of 3,000 is perfectly logical.

Advancing weapons i understand, but 200 bullets a second is practically impossible even by todays standards, which we havent hit yet in this RP.

And my joker avatar and sig are for my love for Heath Ledgers portrayel, not because i have any love for chaos. And it also has nothing to do with the discussion.

@gowia

First off not 200 bullets a second, second off, the weapon is not that accurate at firing.

I can get into the airships and mechs thing cause steam powers those things but how does steam power enhance a machinegun to fire 100 rounds in 2 seconds? Remember that the Gatlinggun has been developed one year before the start of the scenario.

EDIT: just a question, not trying to start an arguement.

@Zoldyck

Welp thank you for not trying to start one.
The gun is not like the modern guns. These Machine guns are bulky, and the ones that are specialized (The really fast firing ones) are built like cannons, but with an actual gun instead of well, a cannon. The reason why they are so bulky is to fit the steam powered engine. Basically in the back there is some contraption that can move between burning gunpowder or burning blue coal. You load up the blue coal and once you get enough to power it, you switch it to burn gunpowder, which starts to make the gun fire bullets.

U guys do realise how dead this looks right.

Well, the rest of the world might as well roll over and surrender right now before the RP begins, looking at that China.

@Legion X51

IMO I made it less OP then ducks Japan.

Time's are Changing - Steampunk NRP set in the 1800s

100 bullets in 2 seconds...really...even for steampunk??? :L

@gowia

Sorry Jester Boy, but Blue Coal is said to advance everything, so I assume that it would advance a machine gun to shoot bullets at insane speeds. I mean you are the Joker, don't you like a bit of insanity.

Name: Empire of the Chinese or The Xiu Dynasty

Territories:
The Empire of the Chinese has control of normal China, the original land of the empire. They also have control of Tibet, Mongolia, and Nepal, all of these are states that where conquered by The Empire of the Chinese under the mighty Xiu Dynasty.

Government:
Absolute Monarchy
The Empire of China is an Absolute Monarchy that is currently ruled by the great Emperor Mau Xiu and his cabinet from advisors. Each region of the Empire, for example Tibet and Mongolia, have there own member of the Royal Family to rule them (For example, the Prince or the Queen). These rulers all can make decisions for those regions, but if needed Emperor Mau Xiu can overthrow those decisions. The other rulers and Emperor Mau Xiu also make up the Imperial court, a group of all of the royals that go and make decisions for the betterment of the empire.

Important Characters:
Emperor Mau Xiu
Mau Xiu was born into a high ranking family, but originally he was no where near royal status. He became a business man a young age normally for the job. (Around 21). At the age of 25, he was promoted to be the kings royal economic advisor. Later on in his life, when tensions grew between Japan and China, Mau Xiu pledged allegiance to the Japanese Empire. Once Japan declared war on China, Mau Xiu moved to a Japanese territory to escape persecution from the King. Once the war ended, the Japanese overthrew the King of China and picked a new leader to control, they picked someone the people would get behind (because he was Chinese), but they also picked someone who supported the Japanese cause, they picked Mau Xiu to take rule of the country and to become Emperor of the now war torn nation.

Economy:
The Empire of the Chinese, like Japan, uses a capitalist model to run their economy. The Government allows businesses to be privately run, 5% of all income and 2% of all goods produced go to the empire to help advance it. This is for most things at least, but Blue Coal industry is a whole other story. With large Blue Coal deposits all over the empire, the Emperor controls that business, just for economic purposes of course, because he doesn't trust any minor person to take control of Blue Coal and give it to the Empires enemies.

Military:
China, with a huge population (one of if not the Largest on earth) and huge blue coal deposits lying over big cities, has a very advanced military compared to most nations. The Air Force uses powerful Speedships (Really Fast Airships) to fly over and bomb other nations. Speedships are not the best at taking hits, but they do have the uncanny ability to destroy the person shooting at them before they actually kill the Speedship.

The Army uses a good amount of Blue Coal, with ground vehicles and a Gatling Gun mixed with a segway. On the front is the gun, which is just a classic Gatling Gun, but on the bag there is an Area you stand on with a wheel and control area that has it move around like a segway. (To sum it up, a Ride able Gatling Gun)

History:
The Xiu Dynasty of China is one of the largest nations size and population wise on earth, which is a large factor in its power-force. With the discovery of blue coal 20 years ago, and the placement of a Emperor who likes Japan taking power 5 years ago, China is in a great position to enter the worlds stage.

In 1846, Blue Coal was discovered inside China near Beijing. China was not the first place to find Blue Coal, but it was one of the first to use it. (I believe Japan was the first, not positive though). The new Emperor of China was appointed after Japan fought and won a war against the Chinese. The New Emperors first act as leader was to invade and conquer Mongolia for the Blue Coal found in the area. China easily marched through the less populated Mongolian lands and quickly established it as a state in the empire. The next target was Tibet, who recently revolted. Tibet, who was allied with Nepal, attempted to fight back, and well, they where more successful at fighting then Mongolia, but the shear population in China's army quickly overpowered and took over the lands of Tibet and Nepal, adding them both as states in the Empire.
