Poison Cloud Attack

poison artillery

Gas-emitting boulders fired every ninety seconds, walking a precise green poison barrage across the ursine town.

Story so far

Two moon elves operate a distant siege engine that throws large rocks into the settlement. Each impact destroys structures and emits humid green poison clouds, while the gunners advance their aim block by block with Battleship-like accuracy.

The poison repeatedly fails against immune defenders but drives Mongo into storage and forces the ursine population to shelter.

Appearance

Large incoming stones bursting through buildings and releasing humid, green-tinted clouds over smoke-filled streets.

Role

The attack pins the town and creates the need for Carl's long-range counterstrike.

Relationships

Akland — The moon-elf artillery specialist helps direct the barrage.
Ursine — The gas forces vulnerable residents into cover.
Carl — Its range and camouflage prompt his levitation-and-Ping plan.
