Design paper cartridge and iron ramrod

Design paper cartridge and iron ramrod is an upgrade in Cossacks 3, available at the Academy.

Background
The introduction of the paper cartridge increased rate of musket fire significantly. Before this invention, shooters had to fill the barrel with gunpowder from a tube, then flatten and cork it with a wad and put a bullet into the barrel. All these operations took up too much time and the rate of fire was low. Once the paper cartridge had been introduced, a marksman had only to put a ready-made cartridge into the barrel, which made the reload time much shorter.

Effect

 * Rate of fire +30%
