And in my opinion, the hot air balloon is another type of dragburning. You can drop burning leaves without them being able to stop you. What you see is a different view from others. Why, there's a long bow and then it goes to a crossbow. Is that reinvented? No, I think that's improved on. The bombs barely affect medieval walls, let alone destroy a building. With battering rams, it can promote fort defences and seiges. With this "short ranged" javelin, it promotes defense. There will soon be something to balance out the "op" battering ram. Why should there be shops if there's a medieval house? Why should there be large sailboats if there's already regular sailboats, or even rafts? Why should there be a variety of recipes just for string? Variety allows the user to use the same product at a different stage. It's the purpose that makes something different, and it's not reinventing.

However, I don't agree on balloons. Too advanced.
