 ===== Unit Stats =====
+Cannons require line of sight to a target in addition to the target needing to be in range.  If there is a bot in range and line of sight to the cannon, the cannon will target the closest bot to itself.  Otherwise the cannon will target the closest tile of creeper it can shoot.
+A single cannon shot uses 0.1 ammo and does 2 damage per tile to up to 18 tiles within a range of 7 of the tile the cannon hit.  These 18 tiles are chosen as the closest tiles with creeper on them to the hit tile.

 Default bots have 10 health and a default cannon does 1 damage per shot to bots. These shots can miss though so 10 shots might not be enough to take down a bot.

 The Cannon is the most versatile part in the players arsenal and is capable of helping against most threats.  While its damage against creeper and range is overshadowed by the [[rocket|Mercury Rocket Launcher]], the cannons damage pattern means it often deals close to its maximum damage per second, and is much more effective at defending against low density creeper.
-Cannons are the most effective part at dealing with [[bot|bots]] as each cannon is capable of killing default bots in seconds. Any force without cannons is vulnerable to even a low number of bots; any formation that could be attacked by bots should have cannons mixed in to prevent this.

 Cannons and rockets go well together, the cannon can keep the rocket safe against bots and low density creeper, while the rocket can target the high density creeper to prevent the cannon from getting overwhelmed.
