HC cuz of the multiplier vs inf and stupidly high hp (i know the other 2 options have high hp as well but combined with multiplier vs inf hc has the advantage I think)

I think the rocket isn't as good vs inf (though it's a bit better vs cav) but doesn't the great bombard have a big multiplier vs inf?

The versatility and rate of fire of the rocket make it king.

Great bombards are pretty OP at striking fear into the heart of the enemy, but not the best unit of this group, much like flail elephants!

They dont have a multiplier vs inf.
With all cards they get 825 damage and 5 splash while heavy cannons get 300x3 vs inf and 4 splash.

The great bombard has a lower ROF than heavy cannons
Flying crows are funnier than rockets

It was over 25 feet long, used hundreds of pounds of powder that, with a projectile weighing in excess of 1,200 pounds, took hours to load. The bombard was so huge that it had to be constructed in two pieces that screwed together to make it, presumably, easier to move. This meant it only took 60 oxen and hundreds of men over 40 days to move the bombard the 120 miles #makeaoemorerealistic

Heavies best vs inf, and best overall imo. However if you come to an art fight, rockets would be better. Great bombards are just bad imo

Heavies just because of how much HP they have and how they can take fights with minimal support from anti-cav in a cheeky FI

heavy cannons are best overall. bombards are insane vs infantry, and have a lot of HP, but theyre a bit awkward to use. rockets (and also flying crows, which should be in the poll) are not so good vs infantry, but better in cannon fights because they have a higher base dmg.

Try getting hit by a great bombard and saying it's bad.
