Invictor
Bu madde henüz yalnızca İngilizce.
Invictor is one of two hellfire cannons created over the past decade through the joint work of Imperial engineers, Archon wizards and gnome craftsmen brought in from various regions. Its twin is Gloria.1
Like every hellfire cannon, Invictor does not fire ordinary shot. Made through metallurgy and magic together, it sends compressed magical energy at the enemy as a devastating fireball, and its crew must keep cooling the overheating barrel with water and wet cloths. The two cannons are hard to move and hard to use, and the project behind them consumed resources and manpower beyond imagining; its success has led to rumours that more are being built in secret.1
Such a cannon does no more destruction than a powerful Imperial wizard, yet its psychological weight is undeniable. For The Empire, which must guard against uprisings at home as well as enemies abroad, the cannons carry the Red Eagle's warning to any noble house that thinks of rebellion: its high walls cannot protect it.1
