One more for Sakura Wars (makes Kohran happy) - robkelk - 08-21-2010
This may have come up before, but I don't recall it.
MIT builds Archimedes's Steam Cannon - and makes it work. "In fact, the solution is so simple, effective, and dangerous that we have decided not to disclose the details." But there is a video.
Since real science can make a steam cannon work, imagine Kohran and Doug using steam-friendly Sakura Taisen science to build one...

Holy crap... It may be less than half the muzzle velocity of my gun, but still!
AND! They had the Myth Busters working with them on it! no no no, I know about that episode. I mean they went to MIT for some help afterwards and UN-BUSTED the myth!

Well, didn't the Pari Kagekidan have a "Big Bertha" canon to lob the kobous to where they're needed?
