- Official Bloons TD 5 description.

The Pop and Awe Ability is a special ability for the Mortar Tower in Bloons TD 5 that bombards the screen for 5 seconds with mortar shells, popping all non M.O.A.B. class bloons, and immobilizing all bloons, including M.O.A.B.-class bloons. To get this ability, you have to upgrade to Artillery Battery, which is the last upgrade on the second path. The upgrade also lets the Mortar Tower shoot 3x as fast.
