Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness Hints
Cannon Tower
Yes, you guessed it: Cannon Towers have cannons. When placed alone, I find them pretty useless: they can't fire at anything right next to them, so any old Knight or Ogre can go in and smash one of these without taking too much damage. When you put another Cannon Tower or two in range of your first one, then it creates an awesome defense... that way, anybody attacking your first Tower will get hit by the other two. They cannot attack air units however, so don't rely completely on these. As with Guard Towers, the best to take care of these are Catapults or Ballistas.
