Armies Part 2

War machines And Artillery

Field Trebuchets, or just Trebuchets

are large war machines that hurl immense chunks of masonry at the enemy, causing mayhem when they strike true

The Trebuchets are the Empire's first artillery and they are many in the Fortress,Castles,cities and small villages have number of this in their defense

If there is no Cannons in the city for defense thenTrebuchets will do the job but even though there is cannons they can still Feild both

Bolt Throwers 

are simply larger versions of the crossbow, able to fire heavier bolts over greater distances.

It is maybe smaller than the scorpion in the Game of Thrones but it is still have the penetrating  with greater range, loading speed and accuracy.

The Bolt Thrower remains an important part of the Azeroth's arsenal because it can be built and maintained cheaply and is accurate enough to bring down monsters such as  wyvern and Dragons with a well-judged shot(And it is been proven by killing the valayrian dragons). Its direct trajectory of fire and uncomplicated mechanism also enable it to be used effectively underground, and without obscuring everything around it in choking smoke

Cannons 

are the most common artillery pieces used by all the armies of the Azerothian . The first prototype Cannons were first invented by within the workshops of Capital City, although now many of the large Fortress or wealthy city have the know-how to make their own. One of the most potent of warmachines, a Azerotian Cannon can shatter the most heavily armored foe, rain barrages into massed enemy formations and topple the largest of monsters and structure with great accuracy. Though these cannons are noticeably smaller than their counterparts the Great Canon, they are nonetheless just as deadly and far more accurate. They are, however, somewhat temperamental devices,  such as those made by the Azeorothians, are subject to occasional malfunction on the battlefield. Such malfunctions, such as the slightest crack or premature ignition of black powder, can result in devastating accidents

These were both use to Defend many cities and fortresses have these and Conquer they maintain number of canons for a possible war. 

Mortars 

are one of the artillery pieces created by the Engineers of the Empire . Compared to the Great canons , mortars are much shorter and about equally heavy, but both can have devastating effect 

Mortars are designed to fire in an arch and instead of solid iron balls, they fire hollow shells filled with black-powder , with a fuse  attached. The shell then explodes, many a time landing in the heart of the enemy formation, blasting red hot, razor sharp shrapnel in all directions, scything through whole ranks of enemy warriors.

Firing a Mortar is always a tense moment, for the quality of fuses is highly variable and it is not unknown for one to burn through before the crew has finished loading the shell. The best case scenario is that the crew will have to waste time removing the dud shell. The worst case scenario the mortar explodes, killing the crew. As a result, Mortar crews tend to be superstitious and carry a large number of good luck charms, hoping they will not meet an unlucky fate.

Mortars are commonly used in sieges. Their high arc of fire and explosive shells are ideal for firing on or past castle walls

The Helblaster Volley Gun 

is one of the most infamous black powder weapon ever invented, its devastating firepower able to tear apart an entire regiment of enemy troops in one thunderous volley.

Its nine separate barrels are divided into three "decks" and are turned by means of a central crank, firing around three shots per deck which would shatter the enemy in hail of miniature cannonballs. Helblaster crews may choose to fire all three decks in quick succession, or to load and fire the decks one after another. Either method has advantages.

The Helstorm Rocket Battery

is an experimental artillery piece used by the as a means to shower the enemy with a hail of explosive rocket munitions.  

Early prototypes infamously blew apart an entire floor of the Azerothian school of Engineers, but the soot-blackened Engineers  persevered and succeeded in creating a deadly, if unpredictable, weapon. The shrieking rockets fired by this bizarre machine can be wildly inaccurate and frequently target nothing more than the ground. However, when these rockets do land on its intended target, the results are devastating; entire regiments can be blown apart by a series of earth-shattering explosive impacts.

The Dwarf Organ Gun, or Organ Cannon 

as some call it, is a strange yet infamous artillery piece created by the Engineers  and used extensively by the for its ability to shoot cannon-balls at a far greater rate of fire than a typical  Cannons.

Typically, the Organ Cannon's barrel are smaller and lighter than the ones used in standard cannonry, meaning it lacks the range and firepower of conventional artillery. However, the Organ Gun makes up for this disadvantage by being able to fire multiple shots at the enemy, able to literally tear apart an entire regiment of soldiers should the crew get within adequate range of the enemy.

The Empire War Wagon 

is an extremely heavy version of a chariot, a mobile armored battle tower with a crew of six warriors, pulled by two sturdy warhorses. The high walls of the tower protects the crew from arrows and attacks from the ground. War Wagon work as a movable platform from which it could either transport Empire soldiers through the battlefield or provide a vantage point for units of archers, crossbowmen, or handgunners to shoot the enemy. Its crew can also be armed with a variety of experimental weaponry from the arsenal of the Azerothain Gunnery School. War Wagons can also install a piece of artillery into its tower, providing the artillery with adequate speed and provide the Empire army with devastating firepower.

Steam Tanks

are monstrous, smoke-belching war machines that rumble towards the enemy and fire deadly cannonballs from their steam-powered guns to crush all those that stand against the Empire of Azeroth .

The steam tank is powered by a pressurised boiler that siphons steam through pipes and pistons. All existing tanks were designed by the famed genius inventor Leonardo da Miragliano(Warhammer Fantasy). it is in 100 A.C he built the Steam tank and Test it the Emperor and the Royal Family were Impress so much so that they fund him to build more after his death he is able to give his blueprits to his trusted students and they continue it and succeeded to build new ones and it continues through generation and they guard this secret with jealousy

when the 5 kingdoms(I still forget when dorne join the targeryens) have once again tried to attack them they paid dearly in blood as their attempt to destroy the tank were in vain

The thick steel armor plating of a Steam Tank makes it all but immune to lesser weapons such as arrows and crossbow bolts, Even muskets. The best way of disabling or destroying a Steam Tank is by cannon fire or a catapult, although the Steam Tank has been known to shrug off even that.

During battle the tank is commanded and driven by a Senior Engineer who manages and directs the steam from the boiler to the tank's mechanisms. Should too much pressure be allowed to build in the boiler, it may rupture with catastrophic effects. The most common steam tank variant is armed with a steam powered cannon in its hull and a steam gun mounted in its turret. Though the steam cannon is smaller than the Great cannons of the the maneuverability and protection of the steam tank more than compensates for the main cannons comparatively short range and diminished power.

The turret mounted Steam Gun is used when enemies are close to the tank, as the weapon's very nature makes it very short-ranged. The Steam Gun shoots a cloud of searing hot steam upon anyone stupid or unlucky enough to be standing near. As can be surmised, armor of all kinds grants little more than a searing trap against this peculiar weapon.

The Engineer driving the tank is usually armed with repeater pistol a as a means of self-defense should the situation become dire enough. It may also be used as a deterrent against charging enemies, as the Engineer fires upon the attacking troops from the turrets hatch and retreats to the safety of the tank's armored hull

Due to it's cost and construction time they could only build 500 of them

(And you can think i'm crazy of bringing these beast)

Other war machines

Gyrocopters are revolutionary flying machines that provides the armies of the Empire of Azeroth with dedicated aerial support or as a form of fast reconnaissance.

These warmachines use a revolutionary rotor-blade steam engine that allows it to take off into the air and land vertically or even hover on the spot, becoming the first technological marvel to achieve the ability of flight.

The Engineers in 600 B.C They combined the idea of wings with that of engines used to drive drilling machines and flywheels from grinding machines, which would eventually be the basis for the steam engine that powers the rotors. After several Decades of constant calibrations and revision, the first proper prototype was met with great success in 510 B.C. The earlier models were made mostly of canvas and light-weight metal, but as time went on, the newer variants became far more heavily armoured, and sported an improved hull and weaponry.

And due to being small only the short people or even the dwarves from the Empire have them pilot it but still some build larger version to fit 6-7 ft tall

This enables the Empire's cities, Castles and fortresses able to cummunicate should they don't have a messengers birds or even a griffon who are not available 

They carve out many Landing pads in the cities and fortresses and Castles  from which a Gyrocopter can land and get refitted for its next mission

 In times of distress, Gyrocopters have been known to carry out emergency supply drops, where supplies and messages can be dropped from a Gyrocopter directly onto a beleaguered Azerothian settlement, enabling them to hold out for far longer periods and send word for help should the threat be far too overwhelming for even the Azerothain to handle alone

It Can Bombs for grounds and change it to rockets for an all out air battle

In battle, Gyrocopters provide the Azerothians with the speed and ability to strike anywhere on the battlefield without the need to directly risk the life of the pilot and the aircraft. Armed with a small rapid-fire cannon at the front, these aircraft have proven time and again their effectiveness against the enemies of the Empire of Azeroth

Aerial units 

Griffon knights and Riders 

They are the ones who fights in the air(Only if they had encounter another air units) they also keeps the Azerothains Independence

The Griffons are bigger,stronger and have more endurance than the demigryph and they have wings 

Taming them are hard and some methods to tame them is stealing the egg even it still common to tame an adult one in the mountains

Great Eagle Riders 

are unique, aerial cavalry employed by the armies of Empire the ones who rides them have the best archers in it's back as it takes them years to perfect their skills even muskets have founds it way to the Eagles

Warbeast and Ancient Creatures

Giants 

The Giants are some of the mightiest Creature have walk the world 

The Azerothain Giants are 50FT tall they bigger,stronger and intillengce enough to understand and to learn by a slower-rate than the Giants of the North and Beyond the wall

It is been recorded they are biggest species of giants that ever walk westeros and they are battle-proven to be a very dangerous creature

They are also builders who helped build structures 

it is rare for a legion does not have at least 1 giant among their numbers unliked in the north who are shy but them are not and they are far more dangerous than the northern giant 

they wield weapons like Mace,Hummers even at some point an oversize cannon which more like a muskets to them they wear valerian steel armor   

Some of them were able to join the Praitorian Guards which they are given Gromril weaponry and armor and other items

(They are still the same skin color of the northern giants)

Ancient Dragons

These Dragon are mounts of House Belleza Greatest Heroes, and Rulers

As their Name suggest they are older than the Valarian dragon 

It is believe these Dragons are the proginator of the Dragons And the Father of Dragons which is 10,000 years old has been tamed by the House Founder Ronan(Ancestor) he is known as the Uniter and Dragon Tamer the 2 bonds are so great that the Dragon itself no Warg or Valerian(Like the Targeryans) ever tried to Tame it as it always results in Death Only the Worthy Emperor(Press),Prince(ss) or the founder's Reincarnated body were able to mount the Dragon

It is Stronger,It's flames much hotter,Larger much durable and more intelligence than their lesser kin

It's been Said the Father of Dragons is the Largest,Strongest Intelligence, the most Durable(Not even Dragon flame,Scorpion or Cannon fire ever penetrate it's thick scales it been said only the gods able to destroy it and the house founder is the one who defeated it and spare it life and create a lasting bond) and he has the hottest flame

Navy

They have strongest Navy that ever sail to Westeros and the known world they numbering of 5,000 vessels 

Transport ship

The Transport ships were able to transport of 2,000 passengers and all their equipment and storage and it has crew of 250 it has few weapons on it's own for defence against boarders they have only have 12 cannons

Galleon Ship

This ships are more armed and armored they have 35 cannons and have a crew of 400 and can carry number of 1,500 soldiers and their equipment and it is more offensive than the transport ship

Carriers Or Aircraft Carriers

are large Warships  dedicated to transporting Gyrocopters and soldiers  after the introduction of the Gyrocopters 

Prince Markus have propose an idea a mobile platform for the gyrocopters so he propose a large warship didicated to transport Gyrocopter and Soldiers for Naval Warfare and Invasion and it could work out as base of operation for an Invasion

Due to it being massive in size it can carry 30 Gyrocopters and 3,500 soldiers and their equipment  and 650 crew

Battleship Or Greatship

It is their largest warship that they ever made it has 108 cannons it has crew of 800 crew and 1,000 soldiers this ship are the flagship of naval operations and they support ground forces many pirates have feared this ship

Dispite it's great size it is still fast but not fast enough to chase lighter ships

It's lenght is 200 ft 

Experimental Warship(These ship are still in debated weather i allow them into the story or not)

Gunship

 Are massive heavily armed and armored aircraft (or Airship ) which can be found in the arsenal of  the Empire of Azeroth

 Gunships are the result of many hours of labor and painstaking amounts of advanced engineering of the Engineers of Azeroth

As for the Gunship were being Introduce by the Emperor Himself he is also an engineer after the Success of the Gyrocopters he had dreamed a gigantic aircraft

and due to the ships are only on the sea and they cannot longer support the ground forces so he dreamed one day Gyrocopter and Ship Combined a quate "A Flying ship" that what he said and in 200 B.C he spared no recources to build one Gunship after years of it he is able to finish it and it still have to test for another decades it is not until 140 B.C the ship were commisioned and put to service immiedly and it is a great success in military and Technology of Azeroth Empire and so it remained unchallenge for everytime it travels it project at Aura of Symbol,Authority and Might 

They may serve several roles, from transport to attack aircraft, but regardless of their function, all serve as versatile and maneuverable platforms from which attacks may be launched or operations conducted.

Gunships tend to be vulnerable to ground- or sea-based artillery and, due to their nature, do not survive for very long if they become seriously damaged. As such, they usually deploy shock tactics. Utilizing heavy firepower and quick movement to pacify resistance, or deploying other ground attack aircraft, like Gyrocopters , or ground personnel like marines, gunships can succeed with light casualties where other forces simply could not.

gunships tend to be more compact and incorporate a larger amount technology and machinery into their structures.

There are two versions of these gunships: the first version has two main propellers placed amidships between the middle and lower hull. The second version has four main propellers extruding from the four corners (two fore and two aft) of the lower hull, as well as a deck with a runway and landing pads. The main propellers keep it aloft, while four smaller propellers located at the four corners between the upper and middle hull are used to change direction and propel the airship forward.

they are types of this ship Light,Medium and Heavy 

The Light have 2 propellers, 16 cannons and 2 turrets crew 500 and 1,000 soldiers and their equipment and 5 Gyrocopter Medium 4 propellers, 30 cannons and 2 turrets, Crew 600 and 1,500 Soldiers and Their Equipment and 12 Gyrocopter and last the Heavy 4 propellers 50 cannons and 4 turrets, Crew 700 and 3,000 Soldiers and their Equipment and 25 Gyrocopter

These gunships contains numerous heavy cannons: four smaller ones on each side of its fuselage, with several large turrets mounted on the main deck which can also serve an anti-aircraft function. There are ten hatches (five on each side) located just above the four smaller cannons, and from which artillery can be fired. Additional guns and turrets have been known to be mounted on the main deck as the situation requires. The main deck is also the location of emergency escape craft, which resemble lifeboats. At the very front of a gunship is its figurehead, a very large, gold-colored eagle with small, spread wings protruding from the neck, representing the Empire and House Belleza. The Azerothian gunship tends to more resemble an actual ship, with its captain's quarters constructed in a similar fashion and its cannons lined up along the hull.

There are also numerous layers and decks to these gunships; an upper observations deck accessed by stairs, a main deck where the captain's and navigation's center is also located, and two lower decks where the majority of the other functions on the ship are carried out. The main deck of the ship additionally serves a platform from which Gyrocopter  may take off and land from, and each gunship will often possess its own compliment of these smaller aircraft. The lowest level of the ship also contains a large hatch which appears to function both to drop explosives from, and as a means of facilitating troops to parachute out for boarding or airdrop actions. The lower levels of the vessel also appear to host the mess and crew quarters. At the very lower stern of the gunship is the open rear deck balcony, which is used by troops to parachute from and an alternate disembarkation point for one or two flying mounts; it could also possibly be used as another platform from which to survey/fire on the ship's environment.

In terms of armor, a gunship is usually well-protected. There are large strips of metal running the length of the airship's hull and the only areas which appear to be entirely unarmored are certain parts of the lower fuselage, as well as the open-air decks. The gunship's main turbines are also protected by a thick layer of metal. Despite this, these propellers appear to remain the ship's greatest weakness; it has been observed that even in the four main propeller version, if only one of these engines fail or become damaged, the entire gunship can go down.

Azeroth military, gunships fall under the authority of the navy and are generally treated as a sea vessel. but it also fall under the Royal family they use this as their as mobile bases from which to launch attacks on the other kingdom. Due to their heavy firepower and tough exterior, the gunships are ideal for spearheading attacks against fortified or heavily defended positions.

And because of that it's pressence always remind their enemies that they are and will not going to surrender their independence 

After the Death of the Emperor several more have been Constructed and due to it's Massive construction cost and Technology they could only build 50 of these behemoths


Finish 

But they are still heroes i forget but Next one will be House Belleza and some creatures will be added in the future

Discliamer: These Pics are not Mine they belong to their respective Owners and Companies
