Sure, you could remain in that little box as long as you wanted, using every resource it has. But then, what will you do when they start running out? What will you do if you need a resource you don't have in that little box?

It's the main reason nations expand, Phantom. Nations always need more resources to maintain themselves. The resources available within those walls is finite in quantity and variety.

You idea would be too slow, too low-ranged, and not effective at all unless you can manage to hit the Titans on the back of the neck, which would be harder to do with 2 heavy cannonballs and a heavy long chain of steel.

Not to mention more expensive. With the amount of steel it'd take to make a single steel chain of that size, you could make multiple swords of sufficient quality with whom one could take out, potentially, more than 1 Titan successively. So you'd be wasting more resources to maybe take out 1 Titan or 2 at best.

And like both me and Ark pointed out, your idea is absolutely useless against anything beyond the most basic Titans.
