The Bludgeon is an artillery piece built for large-scale warfare, generally used against other Tribes. Used to soften up strongholds and blunt enemy charges, these powerful guns give Tribal ground forces long range bite.
The Bludgeon fires a chemically propelled 400mm high explosive shell. These shells destroy tanks, wipe out infantry, and topple fortified structures with ease. They have a maximum range of 50 kilometers, allowing them to lay down a heavy rain of fire well ahead of advancing ta’keshi forces.
Though powerful, the Bludgeon lacks the technological advantages of more advanced artillery pieces. It suffers from accuracy issues at maximum range, and its massive recoil causes excessive wear and tear on its components.
When the Ta’keshi Tribes engage in siege warfare, the Bludgeon is a powerful tool in their arsenal. What they lack in sophistication, they make up for in raw firepower.
