A ballista (its kind of like cannon)
(1/2) > >>
BobSevenSevens:
OK, for those who don't know, a ballista is like a giant bow with wheels. In medieval times, they would move it near the wall of the town/castle/whatever, put "greek fire" at the end, and launch a giant, flaming arrow over the wall.

 I'd like it to move, but very slowly. It would take about 5 seconds for a "string pulling back" animation (a little bit longer than the spear wait) and when you let go, a giant burning arrow would come out and have gravity, but not too much. Also, there would be a small radius (ex. 5 brick radius) where it would kill you if you were in that radius,  up to 15 brick radius, 50 damage, 25 brick radius, 25 damage, etc.

Here is a link to a picture: http://files.turbosquid.com/Preview/Content_2009_07_14__03_53_46/ballista_1.jpg021397f3-be73-4b1a-99ae-5b95335b61a1Large.jpg
