Heavy onagers

[Kekvit Irae]

The only difference besides the obvious is that onagers have "boulder" as ammunition and heavy onagers have "big_boulder". Anyone want to test and see if the big_boulder gives a wider kill radius (flaming and non-flaming)?
Both the onagers and heavy onagers have the same amount of ammo, unfortunately.

they actually have larger range.

I do believe they are less accurate.

No they don't. At least not for vanilla versions of rtw abd bi.

I've looked into the stats file and found that the range is 300. Heavy onagers have 36 shots in bi and 30 for normal onagers, rtw has 30 shots for both.

From my testing, it looks like the firing rate is the same when pounding away at a wall. And accuracy seems to be roughly similar by eyeballing the damage on a static infantry unit.

what? i could fire farther with a heavy onager than a regular onager

That can't be right. Maybe you were on a hill or something.
From my testing, the enemy had to push their onagers forward to approximately the same position to start firing.

Besides the stats file has the range - 300 for all onagers in both rtw and bi.
