The Artillery Turret is a large-grid automatic Block Weapon. This huge capital battleship turret was designed for long-range engagements. It provides devastating firepower against even the most heavily armoured targets. It is however quite ineffective against small and fast targets due to its slow tracking speed and overall limited mobility.
The bulky, heavy Artillery Turret is known for its slow rate of fire and slow reload time, paired with the highest damage-per-second and farthest trajectory & range. Each shell does a devastating 17000 penetration damage.
It is 3x3x3 blocks in size and can only attach to grids on the bottom. It has one conveyor port on the bottom side to reload ammo.
Inventory/Ammunition[]
Its inventory can hold 600L, which corresponds to six Artillery Shells as ammunition.

Trivia[]
The Artillery Turret is called "Large Calibre Turret" and "Heavy Calibre Turret" in the game files.
