Well, tanks are for 1800s when the Corphans of the Northwestern Patreignian sectors discover the power of steam and begin creating average* tanks by the early 1900s. But for some reason they decided to create Steam Powered Exo-Suits first. During the 1500s, Muskets and such begin being introduced to vermin and woodlanders. My concept was that after a surprise vermin attack, Redwall was nearly taken but somehow they drove them off with much losses causing the Abbot to finally believe that they would need a permanent protection in which they let Corphans from a mice tribe inhabit their land and convert the Abbey into a military base during serious combat against all vermin-kind. Their it is.
