Zombie Mortar

The Zombie Mortar is a zombie first encountered in Day 25 of World War Z. He appears on the lawn by being airdropped by a plane in a crate, crushing the plant under it before the crate opens and revealing the Zombie Mortar. The zombie will then fire explosives at plants, each one instant killing a plant. However, he will prioritize certain plants before others.
Zombie Mortar will prioritize these plants first from top to bottom:
*Long-ranged attacking plants in its lane
*Defensive plants in its lane
*Close-Ranged Plants in its lane
*Sun Producers in its lane
*Any other plant on the lawn
When firing, his target will be marked, just like when a Zombot fires a missile.
== Origins ==
Zombie Mortar very obviously references a mortar used in most armies around the world.
== Appearance ==
Zombie Mortar is a dark green and big machine with bombs off to the side. The Zombie Mortar is surrounded by sandbags and barbed wire, which is used for protection, but are otherwise for decoration.
When the Zombie Mortar reloads, he will pick up a bomb from the back and shove it down the barrel. When he fires, he will pull the red lever on the side before closing his eyes and covering his ears before firing.
== Almanac entry ==
== Overview ==
The Zombie Mortar has 1560 DPS. It has a lot of degrades, as the sandbags have 80 DPS, they have 2 degrades every time they receive 25 DPS, and there are 7 total sandbags, which equal to 560 DPS. After all of the sandbags are destroyed, the Mortar itself will start to change appearance. It will degrade once it only has 720 DPS left, degrade again when it only has 360 DPS left, and will blow up when he has 0 DPS left.
== Encounters ==
He is mostly found in World War Z, but is rarely found in Penny's Pursuit and as of right now is nowhere to be seen in Arena.
== Strategies ==
This zombie isn't the hardest to counter when alone, but when in groups or protected by other zombies, he can be really hard to destroy. When in groups, they will target your plants and kill them very quickly. And when there are no plants in its lane, it will start to attack other plants anywhere on the lawn. Prioritize them at all costs. Dartichoke can help as it will target this before any other zombie in its lane. Instant use plants can also help as they can be planted on Zombie Mortar's tile.
