In my student selected novel some of the technology is still used today one of them being the rifled barrel of a gun the soul purpose for this war to give the bullet more accuracy and range one of the major downsides to these guns were they took a bit longer to reload which back then really matters, my novel was placed in the american revolution and back then they way we fought was to get in a line and don't fire until fired upon but we were very outnumbered so we had to think of new technology and that ended up being the rifled barrel. this next technology is not really a technology but an improvement of how we fight, since we were out numbered we made a new tactic called guerrilla warfare, so instead of lining up and firing when fired upon
