Field Cannon

Summary
The Field Cannon is a craftable cannon that will mostly be used as artillery in battle. It is strong but not good in head to head combat. The field cannon does around 50-60 damage if the cannonball hits next to you, but if you were directly hit by the cannon it is around 95-100 damage. It also deals damage to buildings, even houses.

Function
Field Cannons can be used as artillery in the back of most battles, it is strong but hard to find the right trajectory. They can also be used as a breaching tool.

Crafting
A field cannon is spread into multiple parts such as a cannon barrel, cannon wheels, cannonballs, ramrods, and putting it all together. To build a cannon barrel, you will need expert smithing and 5 ingots. To build cannon wheels, you need 4 planks and 1 ingot and for 2 you need 8 planks and 2 ingots. To make cannonballs, you need 1 ingot for 2 cannonballs, To make a ramrod, you will need 4 logs and 3 fiber cloth.

Strategy
A cannon is good from a mid-range of the target. It is devastating if hit in the right area but the user of the cannon can easily be popped dead. From a long-range or tall hill, however, it is harder to hit your enemy, especially when they are constantly moving but you can reload safely without the risk of getting killed (besides the fact of whoever you are fighting pushing into your position.) The cannons shouldn't be left without only a cannoneer but have some infantry in case the enemy tries to push. The reload time of cannons are decent but it might be nerfed or buffed, you can never be too sure.
