siege tower IMPLEMENTED

[Dgkfadomo777]

I disagree in some maps ive gone for hundreds of turns me and my brother built trebuchets and catapults a lot of them too woth no decisive winner

[max-damage]

Basically a wooden, mobile tower, it can hold up to three units (people only--no losing it with catapults), then be moved closer to enemy fortification walls...when fired upon, the tower takes the damage instead of the units contained within, and archers/lonbowmen/poison archers,etc., can fire on the enemy with impunity...also, if it gets within an adjacent tile to an enemy tower/wall, etc., it can lay out a ramp into the enemy structure, allowing ally troops to enter the enemy fortifications through the siege tower...stats:

Cost: 12 turns
Hp: 60
Attack: 0
Armour: 2
Pierce armour: 30
Speed: 1
Garrison: 3 human units-no machinery
Heal rate: N/A
Note: construction only possible in Castles or by Master Craftsmen... (see here--> http://www.ageofstrategy.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1281)

Great idea! A different version was already suggested here http://www.ageofstrategy.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=689
But I personly prefer your version.

Meh, I've never encountered a troublesome wall that a trebuchet didn't easily take care of.

[COOLguy]

ikr who even uses battering rams either.

[Hardeep]

RiverRaider does.... And me, if I feel it'd help....

[COOLguy]

Really. Wow, I only have them because I built siege workshops before I completed Ballistics and I don't want to waste build turns.

Yes, we need it.

There should totally be a leonardo strategy

Usefull to climb walls easy, when wall is touch with your siege tower the wall works like a gate of that player.
There can only infantry pass through those 2 connected obsticals.

And... you can only climb wall from Siege tower over wall (one way traffic), nor reverse.
If Siege tower or a new bulding or a new wall form other unit is touch there is no passage posibble.

This has been suggested and designed already

[Lekkerhoor]

Oh, sorry... units can climb walls with it? What is designed already?

[DoomCarrot]

Yes, search for the siege tower post, it is already in the voting stage more-or-less.

[Lekkerhoor]

I can't find... even if I search

i am not happy, i dont like this "cleanup" work on forum

A siege tower would be a great idea as it could garrison units as well as allow units to board castle walls in medieval times. It should also have quite a bit of health with resistances to most unit types except fire archers and catapults and should have a slow movement speed.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Hi, this has been suggested already, and belongs in the siege section. I think it should be over walls and palisades (not on them).
