Artillery 6 Pound Cannon Small artillery pieces, used mostly against infantry. 6 pound Cannons are smaller than their 12 pound counterparts, yet they are still a fearsome, highly destructive weapon due to their range and devastating power. Congreve Rockets Small, inexpensive Artillery unit, particularly effective at close range. Developed uniquely by the British Empire, Congreve Rockets have the exclusive goal of frightening the enemy's horses with their explosions. Their use can avert potentially devastating enemy charges and may also inflict damage on Infantry units. Howitzer Particularly effective against buildings, their projectiles follow a parabolic trajectory. Howitzers are artillery pieces possessing huge destructive power. Their projectiles' calibre and parabolic trajectory make them devastating weapons which are especially suited to destroying buildings. 12 Pound Cannon Effective against both troops and buildings, their projectiles follow a flat trajectory. These Cannons (named after the weight of their projectiles) are the main artillery pieces of the period. Their destructive capacity and long range make them the most lethal weapon on the battlefield; however, they are also the most vulnerable if the enemy gets too close. Horse Artillery 12 Pound Cannons, but the use of horses makes them faster. The principal difference between Horse Artillery and regular artillery pieces is that, as the name suggests, it is transported by horses. Therefore, the battery benefits from greater mobility on the field of battle. Horse Howitzers Especially effective against buildings, the horses makes them faster than Howitzers. Horse Howitzers, as the name implies, consist of a battery of Howitzers transported by horses. The Howitzers themselves are especially effective against buildings, and the use of horses enables them to be manoeuvred with great rapidity on the field of combat.
