The '''Hwach'a''' replaces the [[Cannon (Civ3)|Cannon]] as the siege weapon of choice for the Korean civilization in the Middle Ages. The Hwach'a is a more advanced artillery unit, capable of bombarding adjacent targets and unlike other siege weapons it is even able to kill them rather than simply reducing their health. A Korean city must have saltpeter to build a Hwach'a.
