Dondagora 832 Share Posted March 17, 2016 A relevant discussion with the recent announcements; What kind of siege weapons or vehicles do you want to see in-game? I saw a fun idea, which would be a Guinecean Steam Tank. Thoughts? courant101 and Lephys 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Brigand 35 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Tunneling engines, hang gliders, battering ram, breaching/siege towers. TragicNumberOne, Vuris, Destrin and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites
pang 4,174 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Always been a fan of Ballista. Nothing like using a giant crossbow from atop your keep walls to slow down the attackers trying to get in. Destrin, Argasoth and courant101 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Jestahr 16 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Battering rams make for interesting mechanics for both defenders and attackers. Always liked them in Warhammer. caffynated and Destrin 2 Link to post Share on other sites

freeze 3,759 Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Cow catapult. I don't think that needs any further explanation. only on EU servers but ontopic: I've always liked the DF warhulks... they were just a rare sight, because of their insane cost. It's a world with magic... so why the custard not Edited March 17, 2016 by freeze Link to post Share on other sites
Gonfalone 83 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm for properly done trebuchet,would love to see some of them smashing walls to a pulp. Link to post Share on other sites
Lephys 698 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I know this is crazy, but what about a Voltron-esque siege golem? Different players would control different parts and have different powers bars. This post brought to you by...Lephys. Because everything's better with a smile facepalm. Link to post Share on other sites
Dondagora 832 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'd really like to see those siege towers, the ones you steer right up to the wall and just jump over it. Those seem like they could be fun. Dominhiho 1 Link to post Share on other sites
bahamutkaiser 2,378 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Actual flight for Fae. It would add an interesting layer of infiltration and projectile combat.

miraluna 2,724 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Am I the only one that doesn't really like too many siege weapons/vehicles? I prefer to fight with my character, so I am hoping these things are resource-heavy and hard-to-build and not just spammed all over the world. That Forgemaster throwing a hammer through the wall was cool though Also like Fae gliding over, Ranger sticky traps, or Guineceans tunneling under walls.

Mox 1,284 Share Posted March 18, 2016 (edited) Cow catapult that sounds so familiar, oh yes (Guild wars 2 have trebuchet that can launch a toxic cow) Maybe we should have trebuchet that knight, confessor, ranger or champion can fit in and then fly over to the keep.. maybe a little sound in your head ("Attack!") I'd rather see some ancient to medieval siege engines. Edited March 18, 2016 by Mox Discord: message me if you want to stay in touch. Retired CrowFall member. Link to post Share on other sites
chancellor 1,805 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Catapults and Trebuchets are not tanks. They're not appropriate vessels for our crows either. Because CF is a game, and 1 player could control a siege engine in SB, I'm fine with 1 player (instead of 20) controlling a siege engine from the outside. But players should be vulnerable to anti-personnel attacks while we control those siege engines. Dondagora, corvax, Makishima and 3 others 6 I think the K-Mart of MMO's already exists! And it ain't us! Link to post Share on other sites

But players should be vulnerable to anti-personnel attacks while we control those siege engines. Not sure where in the info you read that siege engines were tanks or vessels. It does say "inside" but we are talking about siege engines here, an open frame with all the players riding in it visible most likely. Valid concern sure but, it clearly refers to them as mounts in the article. We can be killed off of our mounts and the mount killed, pretty sure that's already been established how mounts will work.
