Giant Cannons is a mercenary company comprised of hills giants and ogres. At Thithak, they are schooled in siege warfare, use of artillery, and fortifications. Many of its members serve in long-term engagements, in distant lands, guarding a harbor or mountain pass, or serving in a conflict.
Giant Cannons was formed with the advent of massive artillery pieces called Cyclops Harbor Cannons. This followed the idea that once a neighbor or foe started to deploy them, you were at a disadvantage. Giant Cannons was formed to meet the need for trained giant artillerist and their gun crews.
