What is Artillery?
One gun costs 100,000 money, 15,000 upkeep per day, and 5,000 manpower. A division can hold up to 50,000 guns. Artillery is a poor frontal fighter and a strong second line. With city defense at X, artillery is documented as wiping attacking forces under one million men. It is also one of the three unit types that can damage a battleship. One controls writeup listed artillery beside the opening units; the military article is explicit that only infantry, tanks, and battleships spawn before research, and this entry follows that rule.

How do you get Artillery?
Research artillery, then spawn from a city you own. Spawn time is not published.
How do you use Artillery?
Put a small infantry screen in front of the guns. Do not march artillery alone into tanks. Pair maxed city defense with artillery if a large infantry stack is walking into your city.
