Work Cart
The Work Cart is used as a mobile drop-off point for any resource gathering. Whether a Thrall or a Slave is cutting down trees, mining minerals or burrowing into underground places, he can use the work cart as a place to drop off his gatherings. Not every resource, however, is physically gathered and dropped off - sometimes resources are generated from assigning Thralls or Slaves to work inside of buildings. Every Work Cart generates its own Guard Area so assigning Wolves to it will protect it further.

Caravan
The counterpart to the Work Cart is the Caravan. Unlike the Work Cart, the caravan does actually consist of multiple carts. It has its own Guard Area, which allows the player to assign Guard units to it, and it is meant to travel player-defined, or auto-defined trade routes. Like the Work Cart, the Caravan can be captured and its contents plundered. The Caravans of Morgoth are built at the Hold and can also be outfitted and loaded with trading goods there. Sometimes the only way of gaining rare Goods means sending off Caravans to Minor Civilisations which are on friendly terms with the player.

Dragon Ram
A unique design, fashioned after the dreadful Worms of Morgoth, the Dragon Ram is an armoured Ram that carries and protects the warriors inside from harm and has the ability to slowly eat itself even through walls using a Burning Fire created in Morgoth’s dark forges. Using it’s Burning Fire ability consumes the Dragon Ram’s power. Once depleted it has to be refilled at the Forge. Extremely long building times make this one of the most expensive units in TLA, but in the hands of a capable player the Dragon Ram will become a powerful weapon.

Abilities: Attack (Crush), Burning Fire, Unload

Catapult
Another engine of war is the Catapult. Created in the Forge and laden with spells of destruction the slow and heavy Catapult is another vital equipment for every capable player. Raining down boulders or enchanted burning or poisonous ammunition the Catapult can play the key role in taking enemy fortifications. Like every Siege equipment in TLA, the Catapult has to be manned with dedicated operators to function properly.

Abilities: Attack (Ranged), Target Ground, Melkor’s Fire, Melkor’s Plague, Dismiss Operators
