Each '''Earthshaker Platform''' mounts the same [[Earthshaker (Cannon)|Earthshaker Cannon]] on a standard cruciform platform as found on the [[Basilisk]]. They are one of the most common weapons used in artillery companies, especially during prolonged static campaigns where they can stay in the same position for weeks battering the enemy. Normally dug-in far to the rear, on occasion an Earthshaker will be brought forward for direct fire in support of friendly forces. Each one is crewed by a team of five Guardsmen in order to keep up a good rate of fire; in a pinch a minimum crew of four can suffice, although this is less than ideal. Only the [[Trojan]] support vehicle is powerful enough to tow this platform into position.¹
