It would be the Chinese equivalent to the Tomahawk launcher (hey, they're both hammer thingies aren't they?), and would fire large hammers at the enemy. It would also be upgradable with a big red STOP sign, which is actually a targetable weapon/special power. When aimed and activated on an area, all enemy units in the area freeze in place for a couple of seconds. This doesn't just fit with the unit's name, but it also has a tactical purpose because it will make units a lot easier to hit, as I imagine the hammers would move so slow that they would miss moving targets.

And yeah, I think Nooka hit the nail on the head there

And Nuker was right, apparently the idea did come up before: here and here. But I'm the first one to suggest the unit freeze ability along with it, making it more than just another lame shoot-funny-stuff artillery piece.

I proposed the hammer and the sickle because that's at least something that everyone knows, plus it fits the Chinese side
But whatever...

How on earth does a Hammer and Sickle fit the Chinese side?
Also, lol at that topic. I remember making that loop...

Everyone knows that song. Or at least a few lines. :-)

... I'm really not sure what to say to this. It's either borderline racist or a nonsensical +1 reply.

China = Communist
Hammer + Sickle = Communist Russia
Hammer = nothing political

It is actually a fact that the sickle is used for this purpose, so it's a nonsensical reply.
