Description
Light Artillery cannon. Requires careful positioning, as it has a fixed position and is unable to rotate more than a direct cone in front of it. This unit has medium range, but cannot attack anything outside of its drop indicator.

Characteristics[]

The Arty is a short-ranged artillery unit that deals blast damage to enemy units within its attack range. It is similar to a Turret in that it is immobile and must be positioned carefully in order to shoot down its enemies. It has the shortest range of all artillery, but does a large amount of blast damage.

Advantages

  • Is an AoE unit that can attack multiple targets at once from a long distance.
  • Can outrange almost all units, allowing it to be safely off the frontlines while shooting at enemy units.

Disadvantages

  • Has no defensive capabilities and can be easily destroyed without proper support.
  • Can be distracted by mobile units, making it difficult to aim properly.

Good Loadouts

  • Works as a defensive unit that destroys pushes and softens the units for other AoE units such as Bombs.
  • Can be used in a mid-fight loadout to gain an edge during a stalemate.

Notes[]

Arty falls in between Archy and Bertha in the artillery class of units. It has a 20 degree firing arc, cannot rotate or fire below its minimum range. It has a 3 second reload and an arcing shot.
