Ogres have long been on the receiving end of artillery fire, and they have grown to respect and admire its tremendous killing power. Indeed such weapons are everything an Ogre admires -- they are big, loud and have a tremendous ability to smash things. However, making any kind of cannon is beyond the ken of Ogres and for years they had to make due with the salvaged remnants from battlefields, ripped off their carriages and carried by the massive creatures like handguns. There are many Ogre legends about these early pioneers in the art of gunnery and the tales of the Loose Tooth tribe and the army of Nuln, or the Ironstompers and the attack on Karak Unfirth are often the first to be told.[1a]
