The following is a verbatim transcription of an official document for archival reasons. As the original content is transcribed word-for-word, any possible discrepancies and/or errors are included.
Heavy artillery emplacement.
The Mega Turret is an automated, long-range artillery platform available to
Warlord Pavium. They fire powerful plasma torpedoes that can be upgraded to
scorch the impact point and leave a pool of Lingering Death. As if this
devastation wasn't enough, they can also use Banished-modified Compound
Detonators for even greater damage. These mega turrets are massive and
power hungry, and require a standard base building slot.
The Mega Turret was used to protect Covenant military and religious
installations, but these massive cannons have also been encountered at remote
colonies and outposts guarding nothing of obvious value and reflexively
attacking all who approach without long-forgotten authorization codes. The
Banished deploy the Mega Turret as a straightforward anti-siege weapon at
war camps on the Ark which have the necessary infrastructure and permanence
to support their use.
