Strategic Analysis
The Houfnice is the **ultimate Bombard Cannon**. It combines BBC versatility with Onager-like splash damage.
- Splash Damage: Unlike regular BBC, Houfnice has blast radius. It can damage multiple units grouped together, making it effective against infantry blobs.
- Siege Dominance: 50 attack with +50 vs Siege means you absolutely destroy enemy siege. No other BBC can match your anti-siege capability.
- Building Destruction: +250 vs Buildings makes you even more effective than regular BBC. Combine with Hussite Wagons for devastating pushes.
Warning: **Still vulnerable to cavalry**. Despite better stats, Houfnice still dies to massed cavalry. Keep Halberdiers or Hussite Wagons protecting your expensive siege.
