These short, heavy weapons lob a hollow, explosive shell high into the air to drop onto its target. This shell explodes with great force, scattering razor-sharp shrapnel capable of cutting easily through even the heaviest of armour over a wide area.

Notes: This weapon does not use its crew’s Ballistic Skill. Instead, it shoots like a stone thrower, using the Bombardment special rule. This weapon uses a 5" blast template and the Black Powder Misfire table. The Multiple Wounds (D3) special rule applies only to a single model whose base lies underneath the central hole of the blast template.
