The '''Orbital bombardment targeter''' is a powerful single-use [[utility]] artifact that calls a series of kinetic strikes against a targeted area.

== Acquisition ==
Orbital bombardment targeters cannot be crafted. Instead they can only be acquired through [[trade]], as a reward for performing [[quests]], or found in [[ancient shrine]]s. Note that quest rewards are selected with a weighted random generator, so there is no way to guarantee access to a targeter in a given play-through. Anecdotally, it is often reported that the increased number of reward options added by the [[DLC]] dilute the reward pool with more options

== Summary ==
When equipped, an orbital bombardment targeter is worn in the waist [[Utility|utility slot]]. Pawns that are incapable of violence can equip, but not use, the targeter. Once the wearer is [[draft]]ed, it can be manually activated by the player to target a tile within 45 tiles and within [[line of sight]].

After a 3s warm-up, a targeting laser will shoot down from above and a series of approximately 30 explosions, one every {{ticks|18}}, will rock the ground near it for a {{ticks|540}}, dealing massive damage. The warmup time before firing is affected by the [[Aiming Time]] stat of the wearer. The targeting radius is approximately 20 tiles, while each individual explosion's radius is 7 tiles and deals 50 [[Damage Types|bomb]]-type damage. These strikes can hit targets under roofs, including overhead mountain.

The targeter cannot be recharged or refueled - once its single charge is expended, the item is completely destroyed.

{{Utility Note}}

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1}}
Can hit objects though overhead mountains, making it decent at dealing with late-stage infestations.

It is great at dealing with tough [[mech cluster]]s {{RoyaltyIcon}} that need to be wiped out immediately, since the [[Damage Types#Bomb|Bomb]] damage type deals ×2 to passible buildings and ×4 to impassible buildings. Any type of static target such as a [[Siege|siege]] camp or hostile [[Faction base|base]] can be easily dealt with by the bombardment, though don't count on getting much loot or many prisoners. Incapacitated humans and items on the ground, aside from indestructible raw materials like steel, will be hit and damaged by the explosions as much as your enemies.
