Carronades

:For the building, see Carronades (building).
 are a artillery unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with Curse of the Vampire Coast.
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Cannonry Shed or Carronades
== Description ==
Many ships of the Undead fleets are equipped with broadside cannons known as Carronades or ‘smashers’, so named for the quick, splintering work they make of even the toughest ship hulls when brought within range. They first incapacitate their target before the zombie hordes board, murder, and loot according to their master’s will. As they sail off, another round of broadside cannon fire sends the ransacked ship and its blood-soaked decks to a watery grave. Carronades are comparable in size and power to the Great Cannons used in the field by the Empire, capable of causing a similar scale of devastation upon living targets and even reducing solid walls to rubble from afar. As with the armies of the Empire, Undead pirates drag their artillery onto the battlefield, with the hisses and cracks of smaller, handheld black powder weapons commonly preceded by the thundering booms of Carronade fire.
== Attributes ==
== Unit Abilities ==
=== Passive Abilities ===
* Crumbling
* Disintegrating
* Black Powder Aplenty
== Strategy == 
Carronades are good for killing high armor and monstrous units at long range, while doing a decent job mowing down infantry. Mortars are strictly better at killing lightly armoured infantry and you should recruit a mixture of the two piece of ordnance that best counters your expected enemy.
