Helstorm Rocket Battery (Wissenland)

            The Helstorm Rocket Battery is an experimental artillery piece used by the Empire of Man as a means to shower the enemy with a hail of explosive rocket munitions.

After watching the spectacular fireworks of a Cathayan emissary to Altdorf, Master Engineer Herman Faulkstein was inspired to transform this eastern technology into a weapon. His early research infamously blew apart entire laboratories of the Imperial School of Engineers, but the perpetually soot-blackened engineer never lost faith that his designs had a military value and succeeded in creating a deadly, if unpredictable, weapon.

Faulkstein's original rockets were wildly inaccurate; madly corkscrewing weapons that had no chance whatsoever of hitting anything other than (eventually) the ground.

Further refinements such as fins, long sticks added to the base of a rocket and a launch carriage to aid aiming further improved stability and accuracy--at least a little bit. However, when these rockets do land on their intended target, the results are devastating; entire regiments can be blown apart by a series of earth-shattering explosive impacts.

After Elector Count Boris Todbringer was almost hit by an errant barrage, they were dubbed "Helstorm" rockets after the colorful language he used to reprimand the unfortunate crewmen.

One of the most famous Helstorm Rocket Batteries is the Sunmaker which was designed shortly before his death by the scatterbrained Talabheim alchemist Jurgen Bugelstrauss.
