'''Artillery''' are military units which function as the modern equivalents of [[siege]] engines by attacking enemy formations from far-off, safe, immobile positions. Artillery was a key element of [[Napoleon|Napoleonic warfare]], used to "shell" (attack) enemy [[infantry]] line-of-battle formations. Artillery pieces were also a key element in the [[Civil War]], leading to many bloody battles, such as [[Antietam]].
