The Repulsion Mortar is a manually aimed, heavy weapon. The Repulsion Mortar has a very large explosion radius; its explosion has a lot of force, causing it to propel ships and other objects quite far.
==Overview==
The Repulsion Mortar has two main uses: for manipulating the movement of the enemy and for escaping unfavourable situations in emergencies. While the Repulsion Mortar does damage, the force of its explosion is far more useful than its mediocre damage; it can be used to push enemy ships into hazards or into the range of friendly ships.
In addition to its offensive uses, the Repulsion Mortar can be a used as a utility weapon; it can be used escape unfavourable situations, such as incoming mortar fire. One can use the Repulsion Mortar to increase mobility. However, one should be careful using the Repulsion Mortar in the two aforementioned ways, as the Repulsion Mortar does damage; using the Repulsion Mortar too frequently in those ways can be detrimental unless is certain that one can repair the ships shortly afterwards.
The Repulsion Mortar can also push mines, torpedoes and asteroids out of the way, although it often takes multiple shots to destroy them.
