You guys do realize that with dragons and mages and stuff, none of the siege weapon effects have to be grounded in reality. We have a weapon that essentially does what one person already suggested. And btw wiki is a horrid source for information.

Have you read all the posts in this topic???? If you have read all the posts I'd like to hear about the weapon you mention.

I have done a mod that adds unique siege equipment to sevral sides. A ry'leh mind enslaver to get pathetic humans to open their gates, a c'tis poison trebuchet, a machaka web catapult, and a hoburg soup cannon (don't ask).
Immediate plans include ulmish ballistae, caelian battlefield lightning rods, and an enormous atlantian turtle. All of this is easy to encode in Dom2.

Very interesting mod... as mentioned earlier I would have started myself if Dominions_3 was not being released soon.

Perhaps others could add their ideas for what type of siege units should exist for each nation... so the community as a whole can agree on the final results.

Thanks for the support. Of course, very little balancing work was done, and the graphics are only half finished. I kind of got bored. And yes, discussion would be interesting, if only in preparation for a mod. perhaps I'll place a thread eventually. I AM pretty lazy though.
