An offset to the potential destructive powers of this could then be something like everyone in the same stack as the artilary of the damned would suffer morale penalties and has higher risk of contracting disease. Also the artilary can only load up on fresh "ammo" after a battle by collecting corpeses. (yes, I realize this is almost like that warcraft 3 unit. I hate warcraft 3 with a passion).
Not only is that a ripoff of Warcraft III it is also way to far out. I think they wanted the game to be 'somewhat' historical. This may have happened before historically but it would not have been widely used.
