Description

The Long Tom Canon is a smaller version of the heavy artillery piece. This version can be mounted on a Mech chassis, although only the largest Mechs have enough payload space to accommodate one. The Long Tom lobs high-explosive shells indirectly at targets, clearing any intervening obstacles. The shell itself inflicts high levels of damage to anything within a large radius. 

Although a powerful weapon, the Long Tom has been cited as the cause of numerous friendly fire casualties on the battlefield. Commanders are advised to be judicious when employing this dangerous device.
