At the barracks firing range, Einar was meeting with Seren and Sven, this because they were about to see a demonstration of the power of explosive ballista ammunition.
The ammunition Einar would use was about 1 meter long, with a metal tip containing 50 grams of mercury fulminate and 100 grams of dynamite.
It might seem like little, but the damage it would do to the wood will be devastating because the metal tips were designed to have a greater amount of strength at the base and to be more brittle on the outside.
All this will allow the dynamite blast to focus on the front of the arrow so the damage will be greater.
One of the soldiers prepared the ballista with a large arrow and, when it was in place, it pointed at an old wooden ship on the battlefield.
