<p>Keeper-Librarian import</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Stavers are a form of siege or field artillery appearing in the military apparatus of the Landwards in the later volumes of the Tyrant Philosophers cycle. Physically, they are described as great bundles of treated rods mounted on wheeled carriages, drawn by horse or hauled by hand, and they function as a heavy-fire support element brought forward to cover a column advancing through obscured, tree-covered terrain. They are named and positioned in a single operational context, and the text distinguishes a &quot;heavy&quot; variant from lighter configurations without elaborating on calibre, range, or crew composition.<br /> <br /> Their significance to the series is narrow but specific: they belong to the Landwards, a military body whose forces take point during a forward advance, and their deployment marks the moment at which an infantry column in tree-covered ground transitions into a combined-arms posture, with the heavy guns moved into emplacement to support the advance. As a named piece of matériel in a series that gives detailed attention to the texture of military life-its carriages, its ordnance, the distinction between what is drawn and what is hauled by hand-stavers occupy the same documentary space as the other equipment the narrative insists on naming and specifying, even when the operational details stop short of full technical treatment.<br /> <br /> == The Object ==<br /> === Description ===<br /> A staver is a form of artillery composed of &quot;great bundles of treated rods on wheeled carriages, horse-drawn or hauled by hand&quot; - House of Open Wounds, ch 21. The text specifies a &quot;heavy&quot; variant, which it distinguishes from a lighter configuration, but provides no further specification of calibre, range, or crew composition - House of Open Wounds, ch 21.<br /> <br /> === What It Does ===<br /> Stavers serve as a military support asset under the control of the Landwards. In the one operational scene in which they appear, the Landwards&#039; forces take point during a forward advance through tree-covered terrain; upon the column&#039;s approach to obscured ground ahead, the heavy stavers are brought up and moved into emplacement to support the column - House of Open Wounds, ch 21. No other function, cost of use, or operational limit is described.<br /> <br /> === Provenance ===<br /> The stavers are identified as a Landwards asset. No maker, previous holder, or eventual disposition is recorded in the available text.<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> === House of Open Wounds ===<br /> In House of Open Wounds, stavers are identified as a form of artillery, described as &quot;great bundles of treated rods on wheeled carriages, horse-drawn or hauled by hand&quot; - ch 21. They are positioned as a military asset under the control of the Landwards, whose forces take point during a forward advance through tree-covered terrain; upon the Landwards&#039; approach to the obscured ground ahead, the heavy stavers are brought up and moved into emplacement to support the column - ch 21. The text distinguishes the &quot;heavy&quot; variant from any lighter configuration, though no further technical specification of calibre, range, or crew composition is given.<br /> <br /> == Relationships ==<br /> - &#039;&#039;&#039;The Landwards&#039;&#039;&#039; - the military body that controls the stavers and employs them in forward-advance operations through obscured terrain - House of Open Wounds, ch 21.<br /> <br /> == Notable Quotes ==<br /> :&quot;great bundles of treated rods on wheeled carriages, horse-drawn or hauled by hand&quot; - narrator, House of Open Wounds, ch 21<br /> <br /> == Tags ==<br /> #artillery · #siege-weapon<br /> <br /> [[Category:Objects]]</div>
