The Cannon Tower is a short-range defensive tower that fires heavy shots at enemy units. Compared with the Archers Keep, it hits harder but less often and at a much shorter range.

Attack

Damage per shot Range Time between shots
30 9 m (900 units) 5 s
  • The tower fires at the nearest enemy unit within range. Range is measured to the edge of the target.
  • It fires only while it is standing and finished, needs no garrison, and never targets your own or your allies' units. It shoots at units, not at buildings.
  • Your attack bonuses (upgrades and Calling) raise its damage the same way they raise a siege unit's.
  • Its shots look and sound like a Cannon Ship's.
