Thread: Ballista's: Are They Good For Taking Down Walls?
KyodaiSteeleye 13:22 01-01-2005
Well, even though you now get two ballistas per unit (to 1 in MTW), they're still virtually worthless on the battlefield - which is a shame, as they were used as a battlefield weapon by the romans (so they must have been of some use in real life) - unlike onagers, which shouldn't be on the battlefield, and do silly amounts of damage.

Anyone discovered any use for Scorpions by the way? My only (brief) play with them made me believe they were just a more expensive waste of space than ballistas....
