Artillery Piece (Fallout 76)

The artillery piece is a settlement object in Fallout 76. 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 functions nearly identically to Fallout 4's, with exception to needing to be powered instead of manned by a settler. Once per day the box beside the Artillery Piece will generate 10 artillery flares, that can be used within a certain range of the placed artillery.

Once thrown, an artillery flare will generate a tower of blue smoke, upon which the artillery piece will then take about 15-20 seconds to fire 5 cannonballs at the target area (Note: the points hit being slightly randomized, & rarely ever on the exact spot the flare is placed).

After firing, it will take about 10-15 minutes (though some have reported waiting up to half an hour) for the artillery piece to reload; any flares thrown during this time will only inform the player the piece is loading, & will subsequently waste the thrown flare.
