The Claymore Howitzer is lightweight artillery with heavy emphasis on speed. Based on an armoured car design, the Claymore is fast and agile, allowing it to get into position, launch an attack, then reposition quickly. It's design gives it decent amour, though its still rather frail. Adding more armour on it would make it too slow for it's intended purpose. For offense, its armed with a special 105mm Cluster Gun, so-called due to the munitions it fires: Cluster shells which split into three separate bomblets capable of saturating a wide area. These are very effective at shelling enemy positions and taking out soft targets like base defences and power plants. This powerful weapon, combined with it's superior speed, makes the Claymore an annoying pest at worse and a big threat if utilized properly.
