S3 Preview #1 | Skyshaker Cannon Arrives & Battleship Building Rules Upgraded

As Myth of Empires: Throne Season 3, Era of the Shattered Seas, draws closer, we're excited to begin unveiling the new content, gameplay features, and system improvements coming in the new season.

In this first S3 Preview, we'll introduce two major additions: the brand-new Skyshaker Cannon siege weapon and a comprehensive update to Battleship Building Rules.

While these two features serve different purposes, both expand tactical possibilities on the battlefield and create more diverse offensive and defensive strategies across a variety of combat scenarios.

A Brand-New Siege Weapon: Skyshaker Cannon

As gunpowder and forging technology continue to advance, the all-new Skyshaker Cannon makes its debut.

Compared with existing artillery, the Skyshaker Cannon features a more compact design. It can be deployed on land within the coverage area of a Boundary Marker, or mounted directly onto Battleships, providing flexible fire support across multiple battlefields.

The Skyshaker Cannon also features two exclusive ammunition types, allowing players to switch between them according to battlefield conditions and target types, further expanding tactical firepower options.

Please note that the Skyshaker Cannon must be operated manually by players and cannot be controlled by warriors. Where to deploy it, which ammunition to load, when to fire, and how to coordinate with teammates will all become key factors in determining victory.

Two Exclusive Ammunition Types

To effectively engage different targets, the Skyshaker Cannon can fire two specialized shell types.

1. Wallbreaker Round

The Wallbreaker Round features a higher muzzle velocity and a flatter trajectory, delivering reliable damage against a wide variety of targets. It serves as the Skyshaker Cannon's standard-purpose ammunition.

2. Thornspike Round

Designed specifically to counter aerial vehicles such as Giant Kongming Lanterns and Aerial Fortresses, Thornspike Round deals significantly increased damage against airborne targets. However, its effectiveness is reduced when used against ground targets.

Each ammunition type serves a different tactical role. Thornspike Round excels at suppressing aerial threats, while the Wallbreaker Round provides dependable performance in general combat situations.

Upgraded Battleship Building Rules

In addition to the new siege weapon, Season 3 also introduces improvements to Battleship construction.

Following the update, Battleships will adopt a building system similar to that of Aerial Fortresses. Buildings and siege equipment will no longer be restricted to the stern of the ship. Instead, players will be able to freely place structures and equipment across the entire deck.

This change greatly increases the flexibility of Battleship customization, allowing players to tailor layouts for different combat roles and tactical objectives.

Whether focusing on heavier firepower, expanding support facilities, or creating specialized combat platforms, players will have far more freedom to design Battleships that suit their strategic needs.

With these upgraded building rules, Battleships will evolve beyond simple transportation and combat vessels into fully customizable mobile battle platforms capable of supporting a wide variety of battlefield strategies.

More Possibilities on the Battlefield

The arrival of the Skyshaker Cannon introduces a new level of flexible firepower, while the upgraded Battleship building system unlocks even greater tactical potential for naval warfare.

From siege weapon combinations and Battleship layouts to team coordination and battlefield strategy, Season 3 will offer players more opportunities than ever to develop unique approaches to combat.

That concludes S3 Preview #1.

The Skyshaker Cannon and the upgraded Battleship building system are only the beginning of what's coming in Season 3: Era of the Shattered Seas. As the new season approaches, we'll continue revealing additional seasonal content, brand-new maps, gameplay features, and optimization updates. Stay tuned!
