I was sieging a town long time ago (i think i was roman) (1.1 i think), and unknown to me the enemy had onagars.
They immediately aimed for my general (who was standing still), and in a freak shot over stone walls they hit him dead on with a flaming ball. Ouch. Needless to say, he died.
The battle then proceeded to the enemy's satisfaction, with my army being pinned near the wall breach by pikemen and being decimated by archers/towers.
Without a general, my men routed, and i faced the loss of my entire greek field army, along with a rising, 20 year old, 6 star general, who died to a well timed onager blow.
