The Loudspeaker is the one stationary emplacement with no weapon. It is built with a Medium or Large Hammer from 200 Build Supplies and has 1,000 HP. It is the only stationary emplacement that a Medium Hammer can build.
Overview
Destroying an enemy Loudspeaker pays 200 cash and 50 Role XP. It still has no function.
The Loudspeaker is listed on the Building page with the other stationary emplacements, but no gun, ammunition, rate or range is given for it. The game files have no buildable data or weapon for the Loudspeaker, so what it does is not in the data.
Effects
Weapon
None. It has no weapon.
Damage
The Loudspeaker shares the damage table of the radio tower structure, with 1,000 HP. The vehicle damage page explains how these tables work.
Use and timing
The Loudspeaker can be placed with a Medium Hammer as well as a Large Hammer, the only stationary emplacement that has this choice. Its placement conditions check the Forward Operating Base bounds, a ladder check (not within 1 m of a ladder) and a safe zone check (not within 3 m of a safe zone or while standing in one), the same as the other stationary emplacements. The Building page describes these rules.
Destroying it
The Loudspeaker has 1,000 HP. Explosives that burst within their inner radius take this many hits to destroy it: MAAWS 3, RPG-7 5, IED 2, C4 4, M67 frag 4. The counts are worked out from the damage rules, not timed in play, and assume full health with no repair. See the Anti-Vehicle Guide.
Cost
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Build Supplies | 200 |
| Health | 1,000 HP |
| Hammer | Medium Hammer or Large Hammer |
The Build Supplies cost is not a cash price. Build Supplies are bought in the shop, as the Building page explains.
Season 2 changes
- Build cost went from 100 to 200 Build Supplies.
- Two damage entries were added to the emplacement’s damage table: one for 20x102 mm cannon hits (amount -70) and one for 125 mm rocket hits (amount +250). The amounts use the same units as the other entries in the vehicle damage table.
