Very much it was pressured by revolts and european powers. However at this time the Ottomans had just won the crimean war so they would still represent a force to be reckoned with

[Austria and Bavaria]

I'd just like to point out that the January Uprising in Poland was on it's last legs at this point. Just so everyone knows.

If I can change a few things in the past, especially at the start of the rebellion that won't necessarily be the case.

[Austria and Bavaria]

Can you explain them

Yes.

[Sjealand]

Can you explain them

Yes.

I mean to me

[Sanabel]

Can I reserve Montenegro?

[Sjealand]

Can I reserve Montenegro?

Yes

[Austria and Bavaria]

Yes.

I mean to me

Saxony is an industrial powerhouse, and most European states had a Breech-Loading Rifle being developed at the time. The Dreyse was in service by 1841, the Kammerlader in 1842, the Calisher and Terry carbine in 1857, the Sharps in 1851, the Henry in 1860. The Chassepot would be introduced in 1866, and the Snider–Enfield in 1867. It is certainly possible that I could have a domestic breech-loader, although it would not yet be fully phased in, some of my troops would still be using the M1854 Lorenz rifle.
