I thought about that, but really, the pots would have been too fragile for that.

However I think the rocket idea could have been possible. Create a decent size rocket. String greek fire bottles over its surface with fuse to hold them on. Fire it over the enemy army. When it's launched the fuse is lit, as the fuse burns far enough it starts releasing the bottles. It would have been possible and something feels like it would have fit the Byzantine style.
