In Ironhide’s words
Perhaps you think you know everything there’s to know about dwarven artillery, but the Culverin is a bit of a different beast. Where most artillery trades firepower for reach, this one does the opposite. Its range is shorter than you might expect, but get an enemy within that range and it will make them very, very sorry.
They also brought along their latest explosive invention that they're more than happy to point it at their enemies: the Dwarven Culverin.
