In the game's words
How to use it
The Morutaru, or Japanese Mortar, is a Japanese siege weapon similar to the Chinese and Korean Mortars, and fires highly explosive shells. It can only be used against buildings and ships, but is highly effective. The Morutaru can be trained from the Castle.
History
In the late sixteenth century, when armies of Japan returned from their military campaigns on the Korean peninsula, they brought with them many lessons in siege acquired from their sophisticated Korean enemy. Unfortunately, use of the mortar, a military art that the Koreans had perfected, was something in which the Japanese did not appear interested. They continued their usual practice of importing European cannons. However, in 1639 the Japanese played host to visiting Dutch advisors who demonstrated a mortar for the Shogun and his representatives. The demonstration caused an uproar even though not one shell fired hit its intended target.
