The 'Plasma Mortar' is the primary weapon of the Wraith and the Covenant Air Artillery.
Introduction
The Plasma mortar fires huge balls of slowly moving superheated light-blue plasma with a large explosion radius and slow rate of fire. It is extremely powerful and usually kills in a single hit and can destroy just about anything on the battlefield in a minimal amount of shots. It uses indirect fire, like the Fuel Rod Gun, meaning that it can be fired just about anywhere on a battlefield without having to worry about obstructions such as hills.
