"Leon Todmeister's Fantabulously Far-reaching Harquebus of Unforeseeable and Unperceived Bereavement."
In the Duchy of Hochland, a place famous for its hunters, engineers devised a firearm that has an improved range over the blunderbuss and the handgun. These weapons were developed from the long-barrelled hunting weapons used in Hochland, and their long barrels make them very accurate. While this weapon is superior to most other firearms in the Empire, it is rare, and so prized that those who have them almost never sell them. For now, knowledge of their construction is limited to Hochland. A rifleman armed with the deadly Hochland Long Rifle can pick off individual enemy amongst the opposing army. It is the terror of enemy commanders and unit leaders.
