Artillery Piece (Fallout 76)

The artillery piece is a workshop item in Fallout 76.

Background
It can be built at a C.A.M.P. once the plans have been acquired. These can be acquired by finding the plans in Fort Defiance, or by purchasing the plans from a robot vendor, and then constructing them.

Characteristics
The artillery piece requires three (3) power to operate. Once per day the box beside the artillery piece will generate 10 artillery smoke grenades, that can be used within a certain range of the placed artillery. Once thrown, an artillery smoke grenade will generate a tower of blue smoke, upon which the artillery piece will then take about 15-20 seconds to fire five mortar shells at the target area.

The points hit randomized and around the designated bombardment area. Anything within the blast radius will take damage. Inside a house, damage is decreased. Inside of a C.A.M.P, if the player character hasn't checked passive mode, the shells destroy any constructs placed there. After firing, it will take 15 minutes for the artillery piece to reload and will generate multiple times a day. Any flares thrown during this time will only inform the player character the piece is loading, and will subsequently waste the thrown flare.

Locations
