Description:

Battle Cannons are deployed from Armours. Once it has been deployed, the Armour program will terminate and will no longer use up a slot. The cannon must be manned by Darwinians, and more than one in order to operate at full efficiency; nearby DGs will automatically man the guns.

The cannon delivers a high rate of fire, which can be very effective, but it is equally dangerous to your own units. Darwinians are not brilliant tacticians, and behind the controls of a Battle Cannon, may make fast work of your Engineers, Armours, or each other.

Controls:

Mouse1 - [ON SELF] Assume control of the Battle Cannon.
Mouse2 - [While in control] Fire the Battle Cannon manually.
(Note: trying to control the battle cannon when it is not manned by DG's will be rejected.)

Notes:

The Battle Cannon is a two-edged sword. Red Darwinians will assume control of your Battle Cannons, if able, and can carve up your defenses pretty quickly. You may find yourself destroying your own Battle Cannons with grenades if they fall into enemy hands.
Your Darwinians can be scared away from the battle cannons when they fall under attack, or they may abandon the controls to defend other DGs.

Research:

Researching Armour will increase the range of the Battle Cannon.
