Bombard Tower

From Age of Empires

Bombard Towers are powerful Defensive Structures on Age of Empires II available in the Imperial Age. They are a Gunpowder Unit, so require Chemistry to have been researched from the University beforehand, as well as its own technology. They cost 200 Stone and 150 Gold to build, and can only be built by some civilizations. A Bombard Tower has 120 attack, enough to one-hit-kill any infantry or archer and most siege weapons or severely damage heavy cavalry. They can only be out ranged by Trebuchets and Bombard Cannons, and Battering Rams have enough pierce armor to shrug off the tower's attack. It is extremely difficult to destroy a Bombard Tower without one of these units.

Bombard Towers feature a vast LOS and Hit Point, making them good lone Towers.
