The Cannon Turret is the anti-armor emplacement: a single cannon with splash that punishes medium and heavy vehicles and reaches farther than a tank's gun. It cannot shoot aircraft.

How to use

Two or three cannon turrets at a choke, backed by an MG turret for the light stuff and an AA turret overhead, hold a lane against anything short of a siege. Place them so their ranges overlap and keep an Engineer or Repair Tower behind them. Upgrade to the Bastion Cannon on the side the enemy actually attacks. Artillery out-ranges every turret; answer it with units, not more turrets.
