The Captured Mortar is the Native American equivalent of European Mortars with similar stats to the Howitzer, and which can be upgraded by Outlaw upgrades — such as Folk Heroes — as well as various Home City Cards.
Upgrades[]
The Captured Mortar is automatically upgraded in the Imperial Age.
When Europeans engaged in conflict with indigenous peoples in North and South America, the adroit usage of artillery afforded them great advantages tactically and psychologically. Over time, however, native peoples such as the Inca and Mapuche acquired artillery of their own and used it to devastating effect against their European oppressors.
