we are starting being noticed in Asia.

Good catch.

You would only weaken them in order to capture them, arson would be for trash buildings. This is the case of CC. It shouldn't be easy to capture and it shouldn't be easy to destroy with a single battering ram.

The first phases of the rams could be taken down by a CC. But.... They could serve as a bait for the CC to focus on shooting the rams while other units capture the CC. It would be a mattress effect. Or cover effect vere with 5-6 rams you can capture CC, They could be more if we lower their power more, but they would be cheaper.

It's like call to arms but the unit is seeking a shelter.

Cheap and easy to destroy. You will need several soldiers to protect it.

I need a more explicit explanation. Exactly what artistic expression you refer?

Maybe...

having 3 levels of ram wouldn't make it feel so OP.

but that's in the game.(?)

Medium, cover or only little.

Many range weapons.

Literally is a kind of cover. Mantellum in Latin.

Mantlet in English Mantelete in Spanish. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantlet Means cover or clock. From Latin Mantellum.

I like the hook to catch ships.

I have the same idea since you implemented it in your mod. I was thinking 3 levels.

I found this.

In this forum ,(I googled and google show me our own forum) Is a makeup Isn't made by me but...I have same idea in mind and wheels.

That info is from 8th Century. They must have changed... Siege weapons Edit "During the siege of Hermopolis in the 8th century BC, siege towers were built for the Kushite army led by Piye, in order to enhance the efficiency of Kushite archers.[61] After leaving Thebes, Piye's first objective was besieging Ashmunein. He gathered his army after their lack of success so far, and undertook the personal supervision of operations including the erection of a siege tower from which Kushite archers could fire down into the city.[62] Early shelters protecting sappers armed with poles trying to breach mud-brick ramparts gave way to Battering rams.[61] The use of the battering ram by Kushite forces against Egyptian cities are recorded on the stele of Piye" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_ancient_Nubia """Then they fought against "The Peak, Chest of victories"...Then a battering ram was employed against it, so that its walls were demolished and a great slaughter made among them in incalculable numbers, including the son of the Chief of the Ma, Tefnakht....""" — Victory Stele of Piye.[63]

During the Iron Age, in the ancient Middle East and Mediterranean, the battering ram's log was slung from a wheeled frame by ropes or chains so that it could be made more massive and be more easily bashed against its target. Frequently, the ram's point would be reinforced with a metal head or cap while vulnerable parts of the shaft were bound with strengthening metal bands. Another type of ram was one that maintained the normal shape and structure, but the support beams were instead made of saplings that were lashed together. The frame was then covered in hides as normal to defend from fire. The only solid beam present was the actual ram that was hung from the frame. The frame itself was so light that it could be carried on the shoulders of the men transporting the ram, and the same men could beat the ram against the wall when they reached it.[3] Many battering rams possessed curved or slanted wooden roofs and side-screens covered in protective materials, usually fresh wet hides. These hide canopies stopped the ram from being set on fire. They also safeguarded the operators of the ram against arrow and spear volleys launched from above. A well-known image of an Assyrian battering ram depicts how sophisticated attacking and defensive practices had become by the 9th century BC. The defenders of a town wall are trying to set the ram alight with torches and have also put a chain under it. The attackers are trying to pull on the chain to free the ram, while the aforementioned wet hides on the canopy provide protection against the flames. By the time the Kushites made their incursions into Egypt, around 715 BC, walls, siege tactics and equipment had undergone many changes. Early shelters protecting sappers armed with poles trying to breach mudbrick ramparts gave way to battering rams.[4]

That is Assyrian-Persian illustration. but it occurs to me that it is one of the possible designs. The other is the Egyptian with wheels and more armor.(more wood)

By the time the Nubians made their incursions into Egypt, around 715 BC, walls, siege tactics and equipment had undergone changes, mostly influenced by developments in the Asiatic East. Early shelters protecting sappers armed with poles trying to breach mud-brick ramparts gave way to battering rams. Enclosures were still erected, preventing surprise attacks, but raised platforms from which the town could be showered with missiles, which decreased the advantage the defenders had on their tall ramparts as we find from Piye's siege of Hermopolis in Egypt: Behold, [he] besieges Heracleopolis, he has completely invested it, not letting comers-out come out, and not letting goers-in go in, fighting every day. He measured it off in its whole circuit, every prince knows his wall; he stations every man of the princes and rulers of walled towns over his respective portion. http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/siegewarfare.htm probably on wheels. Other can be more like this.

I am speaking in general. Believe it or not here among the team, people who are no longer around, there has been toxicity.

Isn't hate. if you lived in a country like mine, human beings are corrupt. That is why dictatorships happen. Power( political) corrupts much more.

Estoy planeando Xianbei, Yanzhei...y los obvios Hunos para la segunda parte.
