 This weapon can inflict massive amounts of damage on the target and its immediate surroundings and it doesn't require a great gunner due to the splash damage radius.

-Using the '''Thumper''' as ''indirect'' artillery piece can be challenging as it lacks the [[Long Tom|Long Tom's]] targeting computer, and the shell explosion radius is smaller compared to the Long Tom counterpart.
+Using the '''Thumper''' as an ''[[Indirect Fire|indirect]]'' artillery piece can be challenging as it lacks the [[Long Tom|Long Tom's]] targeting computer, and the shell explosion radius is smaller compared to the Long Tom counterpart.
 Thumper projectiles arc toward there intended target so lining up your cross hairs on the target may cause the shell to drop short, in which case you'll have to aim above the target in-order for the shell to strike. The amount of arc is trial and error but with a little practice one can become proficient at devastating the enemy in a couple of shots, at the least you will remove much of their armor causing them to retreat. Thus taking them out of the fight and reducing their CBills having to repair and possibly keeping them from moving up to a larger variant.

	When mounted on BattleMechs it provides artillery support at much closer ranges than its cousin. The Thumper Artillery Cannon fires a shell at an enemy location like an autocannon. Unlike an autocannon, the artillery cannon's targeted location isn't an enemy unit but a physical location (hill, tree, etc) due to it's high parabolic arc.
