In the game's words
How to use it
The Captured Mortar is a mercenary unit that is available to Native American civilizations starting in the Fortress Age. Like Mortars, Captured Mortars are highly effective against buildings and fortifications. However, unlike their European counterparts, Captured Mortars can also target enemy units.
History
When Europeans engaged in conflict with indigenous peoples in North and South America, the adroit usage of artillery afforded them great advantages tactically and psychologically. Over time, however, native peoples such as the Inca and Mapuche acquired artillery of their own and used it to devastating effect against their European oppressors.
