Since then, weapons have become considerably more deadly (and efficient at causing mass casualties in minimal time with minimal effort); where muskets fired a single shot every 1-5 minutes (depending on a colonial's ability to reload between shots), modern weapons fire in deadly quantity with minimal effort or discipline needed.
