Turret Architectural Yield

The Turret Architectural Yield (T.A.Y.) is an engineering commission set up by the State of Burgamere to design turreted cannons for defensive use. It formerly operated out of the town of Redspire during the Travelers Era, now operating out of Redwreck, and working for the State of Vladistan.
== History ==
T.A.Y. was originally created after the fall of Duragrad. In the early days they competed with Omni Read Turrets (O.R.T.) for contracts with the State of Burgamere. Due to the sheer number of designs created by T.A.Y, they won the contract. Only two O.R.T. turrets were ever built, one in Vladingrad and one in Korovoya Gorka.
Vladingrad was covered in so many cannons that it eventually became known primarily for them. 
When Iristor's Comet destroyed Rathnir, T.A.Y was integrated into the Vladistani government on Abexilas along with all previous institutions of Burgamere. With the turmoil of a new land before them T.A.Y seemingly went inactive, with only 2 turrets being built in Duragart. The commission was formally shut down in the Fall of 32 VE.
After closing, several documents were leaked to the public, showing advancements in the field of conduit-based water power, with several notes somehow involving T.A.Y with the research. Rumors began to spread about the shutdown of T.A.Y being a coverup, and a project involving the commission starting in the far south of Vladistan. 
== Designs ==
T.A.Y. has produced over seventeen turret designs, their most prominent one being Dome, which spread even beyond the borders of its homeland. 
Clients can ask for design details for cannons with specific needs. Custom designations are titled according to the following: (purchaser number)(number of cannons purchased)(month/year)
* Tiny (Remote control prototypes)
* Small (Various prototypes)
* Cube (MK. I) (Unbuilt)
* Dome (MK. II)
* Pan (MK. III)
* Zoid (MK. IV)
* Triple (MK. V) (Only one ever built.)
* DUTY Dome (L. 1) (Built in both Fort Frunze and Vladingrad. Only built from Duragarm and Pitch Linumium.)
* Double Dome (L. 2) (Only one ever built. Pack Steel and Duragarm.)
* Anti-Air Large (AA 1) (A modular Anti-Air gun that can be easily moved. Largest profile of any T.A.Y design.)
* Anti-Air Small (AA 2) (A smaller version of the Anti-Air gun intended to be used in Istmark and Jamestown. One stands in Duragart.)
* Short Barrel (custom designated 42139)
* Main (custom designated 42255)
* Dingus House (custom designated 42399)
*The Cannon (custom designated 42494)
=== Unofficial Designs ===
* Fort Frunze Cut-in Large (A large artillery cannon that was cut into a wall at the front of Fort Funze. Could not point up or down, so the charge had to be manually guessed for distances every shot.)
* Fort Frunze Cut-in Small (A small artillery cannon that was held in place at the back of Fort Frunze, pointing towards Korovoya Gorka.)
* Jamestown Tower Convert (Unfinished) (A design to replace the middle section of the several stone towers built in Jamestown for increased defense. Abandoned after Iristor’s Comet was revealed.)
