The Wallbuster is a Chinese support power available from the Atomheart. It is a ballistic missile designed by Yunru herself, utilizing seismic technology based from her Earth Breaker device (and Hammer Defenses to some extent). Launched from the Atomheart towards a target location, the missile generates a powerful earthquake upon impact, causing walls to instantly crumble and defenses to be severely damaged or outright destroyed.
However, the Wallbuster missile deals little to no damage against anything else, rendering it almost useless against infantry, vehicles and base structures.

One-hit targets
The Wallbuster will destroy the following defenses at full health in one hit. Defenses marked by an asterisk (*) will remain intact once they are upgraded, while the Risen Inferno Tower, denoted by two asterisks (**), can gain experience but has a limited lifespan, so while it technically can gain an upgrade to remain intact after being hit by a Wallbuster, such case is highly unlikely.

Wallbuster is surprisingly ineffective against EMP Mines, Genomines and M.A.D. Mines.
AI behavior
The AI will use Wallbuster similar to how they use superweapons, so they target any of the following, assuming they are not cloaked:
- Construction Yards
- Power providers (not on Hard difficulty),
- War Factories
- Tier 3 technology providers (e.g. Epsilon Pandora Hub)
If all these does not exist, it'll target base defenses, then finally units. Keep these buildings away from defensive chokepoints to avoid a surprise one-hit kill.
