I’d say it’s most likely just the size. Although I don’t think those guns would actually be that ridiculous. Just put them on 2 neighbouring hills and you could have a nice artillery duel. A bit more interesting than watching 2 men fight each other with potatoes, I’d assume.
The duel weapon choice bit is so good, yet is there some special context for the krupp gun part besides being big cannons (and so ridiculous)?
