Indirect Fire: The Earthshaker can be modified to fire 'indirectly' at targets it can't see in the same way as a mortar or Whirlwind. Earthshakers that fire indirectly obey the normal Earthshaker Cannon rules, except that they become barrage (i.e Guess range) weapons with a range of 36"-240" (see page 84 of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook). Note that the minimum Guess range is 36".

Immobile: Once deployed, an Earthshaker platform cannot be moved without being towed.
