Long Tom Artillery
Contents
Overview
The Long Tom Artillery Cannon fires its shells in an indirect arc, dropping them down on top of enemy units with devastating effects and enormous Splash Radius up to 45 meters. When struck by a shell death is instant. If you are within the splash radius then a return to the repair bay where major repairs will drain your c-bills if you haven't lost a limb in which case you're better off buying a new Variant.
