From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum

History
The first Helblaster was created by the Dwarf Runemaster Gimlit Bareshanks, a famously embittered misanthrope eccentric using a discredited design of his own people. [2a]
Many are still maintained in Nuln. [2a]
Mechanism
Nine barrels are formed around a central crank which enables the machine to fire devastating volleys of cannon balls into a enemy. However not only is it unable to easily reloaded as each barrel must be removed and reloaded individually but it is prone to jamming or misfiring, rending the entire machine useless. [1a]
