They look like some kind of super Armored Tower. ~:eek:
I've never seen these before.

That, sir, is a city on the move.

Carthage is Bankrupt, The bailiffs have moved in and are confiscating buildings...

Rofl yeah I noticed these b4, almost looks like they should be from old screens but the other things in the pic suggest otherwise ~:confused:
Armoured Seige Towers???
Did such a thing every exist???
I don't know if they existed, or if they're better than normal siege towers, but I suspect they are what you would use to assault an epic stone wall - since it's so much higher than a normal stone wall.
They look like buildings sailed by accountants.
It's fun to charter an accountant
And sail the wide accountan-cy,
To find, explore the funds offshore
And skirt the shoals of bankruptcy.
It can be manly in insurance:
We'll up your premium semiannually.
It's all tax-deductible,
We're fairly incorruptible,
We're sailing on the wide accountan-cy!

Maybe they're just normal armoured seige towers (i.e. no armaments, just hide covering and a stairway for troops to climb up to the top). That would be VERY cool if they are helepolises.
