Description
Dare I say, good sir, that the contemporary issue requires a most permanent and proper solution.

Allegedly, Canterlot's Royal Guard are equipped with a version of this.

The Dreyse Needle Gun, a rather remarkable weapon for its time, breech-loading rather than muzzle-loading, making it much faster to shoot, although it was not particularly easy to fire as many shots as a musket due to the bore getting rather filthy. This is a game, so that's not an issue lol.

These were Prussian weapons, issued all the way back in the '40s and made their way through most of the 19th century, and by '40s, I mean 1840s.

Information
  • Includes one weapon, the Zündnadelgewehr. It's found in the Marksman, Black Powder, and Victorian tabs
    • Disclaimer: Please do not use the Zündnadelgewehr as a marksman instrument, instead use it to zünd nadels from a gewehr
  • 195 damage
  • Damage dropoff range ends at 300 meters, losing 50% of its power
  • High knockback
  • 69 cartridges in reserve
  • 3 second reload

Yes, I have a Discord. I post various status updates and it's just all-around a spiffy little place with emotes and other stupid stuff. You can make suggestions and stuff as well, or just chat, whichever is your thing.

I love all of the Victorian weapons, but the ammo reserves just seem too big. 39 or 29 would probably be better.

It's my favorite rifle, I'd like to make a mod for the Werndl. The models are done, I'm just trying to get back into animating.

Don't believe me look in the hands of the U.S. marine/ indian scout

I saw a image of this rifle on the mod page of King's addons. Honestly would like to see a mod for a Austrio-Hungarian Werndl 1867/77 rifle

Yeah, I'm aware of the issue. I don't know how to fix it, otherwise I would've patched it two years back. It's probably an issue with the AI, but I don't know.

I don't know if this is an issue with the guns or the AI, but most of the enemy bots care more about shooting me than the friendly bots nearby. Half the time they just crouch next to each other doing nothing. They're not even trying to shoot each other, but as soon as I spawn they all start sniping me. This happens with the other one-shot rifles too, such as the chassepot and the martini-henry.
