Artillery's main purpose is not casualties, but to force the enemy to hunker down. They cant move, and the effect on morale is devastating. Many WW2 vets have said that artillery was the worst thing about war. Deafening explosions, dirt, wood and shrapnel flying everywhere, trees exploding and all you could do is huddle in your little pothole and hope for the best. And the bombardments last for a long time too. Hours and into days at a time.

[@anzacwashington7050]

@@rykehuss3435 That's late artillery doctrine. By around WWI artillery was like that. But gunpowder artillery began life as a weapon chiefly for causing large numbers of casualties at great range, and for causing serious structural damage. Artillery was used all the time in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries for annihilating enemy formations, especially cavalry, who were taller targets, and more vulnerable to large missiles. The days of week long barrages and guns of ranges of more than ten miles came very late in the lifetime of battlefield artillery, and while it did change the way the weapon worked, it hasn't completely changed its purpose or image.

Big Bertha was the artillery for one of the factions in Total Annihilation, it was very satisfying but not as much as this!

[@melanch0lycat5393]

Nope, big bertha was a giant artillery weapon developed by the germans in WW1

[@krux02]

You are both right. Big Bertha was the artillery from the ARM side in Total Annihilation and an artillery weapon in WW1. But the weapon was never officially called that way. It was just a nickname from british people for that Weapon, also referring to the fat daughter in the Krupp familiy who made that Gun. But that weapon was never a railroad cannon, unlike Schwerer Gustav. That's a huge Gun.

[@AnoNymous-ie3wc]

@Jaden_Korr same reaction here xD

[@copperboltwire320]

Though, never as devastating as the revolver like monster cannon, the Father to Big Bertha, forgot it's name. That thing, when it started to shoot, would need atleast 20+ Nuclear reactors just to allow it to shoot without much drag... Or it would be slow or empty ALL energy reserves nearly instantly... EDIT: "Vulcan" The cannon i was talking about was the "Vulcan" takes up 30 nuclear reactors to keep it going steady, for just ONE Vulcan cannon. But it's super darn devastating too...
