This might have already come up, but I’ve been looking at some pictures on the ES sight, and I’ve noticed that there looks what to be siege towers in some of them, here is some examples . . .
. . . . . . . .
They look like they have a battering ram at the bottom, and I’ve noticed wheels on the base, (outlined in pic3) and pic 2 sort of shows two with a group of infantry, which may indicate that it can move. Perhaps, it is possible to garrison archers into these towers, who can then provide support, for your infantry/cavalry, and also maybe able to shoot over walls, when the lower ram part is destroying a wall???????
Would I be correct in saying this?
P.S. The words in pic 3, say Wheel, and Ram, If they are hard to read.
P.P.S. Tell me if the pictures work or not

From the infos we have seen so far, it appears that the siege towers will work as:
1) Battering ram - has wheels and ramming head (I think that's what u call them) 2) Tower - it's called tower, and looks as if units can be garrisoned inside to shoot arrows.
3) I'm not sure on this one, but I heard that ur units can use the siege tower to "hop" over enemies' walls.
No wonder they won't show, its geocities site goes temporaily unavailable after 1 view because the datatrasfer has gone over the limit ^^ *not that I used to make geocities site long long times ago^^*
