Unit Description
The Mangonel is the best non-gunpowder artillery piece available in the campaign. Although the range is the same as the Catapult and Trebuchet, the projectile does a lot more damage to structures and has a larger blast radius.

Due to it's power, the mangonel projectile is best used on structures. (does it bounce? the bounce field is yes, but HitGround is REMOVE?) The mangonel cannot turn, once set up it is limited to shooting at targets in the 15 degree arc in front, so care must be taken at the deployment stage so that all planned targets are in the arc.
