   Entry settings

   The Arakcheev artillery system is a classification for a variety of cannons based on the same design, as designed by a Fatui General surnamed Arakcheev. The system was composed of two main bronze gun types: standard field guns (6- and 12-pounders) and the distinctive Licorne (or "unicorn"), a versatile long howitzer capable of firing solid shot, explosive shells, and canister at both flat and high trajectories. These cannons are muzzle-loaded, requiring ramming the shot and powder down the barrel. Visually, they were characterized by a practical, no-frills design. As is the case with their muskets, the Golden Horde received their Arakcheev artillery guns from Snezhnaya as part of a military loan. They are now used by the Golden Horde to attack Mondstadt City. They can fire canister, roundshot and grapeshot rounds.

Rituals focus on wind-themed festivals, prayers for gentle breezes, and preservation of historical relics like the Holy Lyre.

Due to their disposable slave status and inherent resilience, they usually wear little to no armor, with some sort of Snezhnayan-made Delusion-powered shock collar tightly held on their neck, remotely operated by their Flagellum Dei masters and capable of compelling the Mitachurl to obey them via some form of painful elemental burst delivered to their neck through the collar.

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    The Gribeauval artillery system is a classification for a variety of cannons based on the same design, as designed by a Fontainian Lieutenant General Jean Gribeauval. In comparison to their more logistically inadequate predecessors, these cannons featured shorter, thinner bronze barrels, a screw elevation mechanism, and a tangent rear sight for improved aim. Carriages were lighter and narrower, with standardized, interchangeable parts. The system included 4-, 8-, and 12-pounder field guns. The system also included the Mortier de 12 pouces Gribeauval (Gribeauval 12-inch mortar). The measurement of the mortar is expressed by the diameter of the ball, using the Fontainian ancient system of measurement, in which 1 pouce (1 inch) is worth 2.707 cm. It fired primarily solid shot in an arc, like any other mortar.

    Loading was a muzzle-loading process. After firing, the recoiling gun was held back by wedges, allowing the crew to swab the bore, load a new shot and powder charge from the muzzle, and then remove the wedges, letting the cannon return to firing position by gravity. Prior to the battle for Mondstadt City, Jean Gunnhildr ordered a number of these guns in an attempt to modernize and reinforce the Knights of Favonius force left in Mondstadt. They are now used in defense of Mondstadt City.

    They can fire canister, roundshot and grapeshot rounds.

Each is equipped with a Delusion and is individually a rather formidable combatant, wielding either raw elemental magic, a musket or a rapier and flintlock pistol.
