What do siege weapons count as for hits and what are the specs for making one?

sieg weapons... >.>
Like ballistas, trebuchets, onagers. All that good stuff.

they would be projectiles therefore being yellow or whites in belegarth rules. But in our realm we could figure something out if someone makes them.

Hot damn! I'm making siege weapons for my birthday!
(Maybe we can play with them at the Wichita wildlife reserve. If I finish them in time.)

Alright!!!

Make them single blacks? Ballistae are Double Blacks, while Rock trebuchets are single? Make boulders double?

Trebuchets launched things that were like the size of a smart car.

Nobody's hittin' me with a car! Y'all hit hard enough already!

Double Black is an Immediate dispatch, is in not?

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Mon Nov 15, 2010 4:56 pm

Yes, double black is insta-kill.

A motor-carriage sized rock should do the trick, then.

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Mon Nov 15, 2010 8:23 pm

It would depend on the size. But how would you transport it?

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Mon Nov 15, 2010 9:14 pm

And how would you MAKE rocks that big? That's $20 worth of foam each, at least.

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Mon Nov 15, 2010 9:35 pm

And make it safe

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Tue Nov 16, 2010 6:41 am

That would be a HUGELY expensive weapon set.

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Tue Nov 16, 2010 6:59 am

And there would have to be a requirement where you couldn't shoot someone that's close

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Tue Nov 16, 2010 7:07 am

I'm thinking there are more problems than benefits with this idea.

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Tue Nov 16, 2010 3:36 pm

i agree but if he can build it and transport it then have at it

You're forgetting the main benefit of this idea...it would be AWESOME!!!! That alone should trump all problems, I think. lol!

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Wed Nov 17, 2010 3:59 pm

it would be awesome but i don't want him spending a bunch of money on somethinghe couldn't use

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Wed Nov 17, 2010 4:17 pm

He'd be able to use it for sure at events, and at some practices for scenarios. If not for Bel, than for Dag, and Niall, you know how big the Midgar field is. Which, incidentally, all of Soluna is more than welcome in Midgar.

Yes, I'm a shameless recruiting whore, but it's true. Everyone in Soluna is welcome in Midgar.

Subject: Re: Siege weapons Wed Nov 17, 2010 4:25 pm

If he can make it then awesome ill play with it!! Haha and I know we are all welcome there. We will take trips

Even 12kg rocks would have enough force to kill you. That's about 3" radius. And that's for a trebuchet. A ballista would shoot it through you. XD

A word of advice for those on the receiving end of a siege weapon.
"Don't get hit."
