Artillery turret#1178
A top segment drillship turret that can you can order to shot using a button on the G menu. Range and demage would depend on tier. A siege weapon to help you with cog ships.
I did not see that at the moment i posted
Good news! Artillery turret is actually in development. Not sure when it will be released, BUT the goal is to make players drillship more active in combat rather than a passive fall back position.
I want to be very clear that this one ^ was the first post about artillery, dating 2 years ago. But since this one describes the feature better and had a dev reply to it, I decided to merge the older one to this one here.
Maybe, the artillery could only visor the drill of an drillship, because I don’t see a point in destroying a module just to make the drillship flee as you are approaching it, if you can one-hit modules (the tank-producing one is my favourite for this) with a rocket launcher.
that why i suggested its manualy target no auto fire you can zoom in on a map to see the drill ship and target each part of it also i think i would be a good idea to have the artillery shell be not auto reaload but also only manual like you have a sheel rack that goes from the celling you put in shells and close it up and it hold like 3 sheels tjhen when you are assulting a drillship you hide open map zoom in and target the places you want for bombardemt.
With the addition of tesla turrets, this will be far more balanced
