Yeah, it should look like it did in the movie, I can see it know...
A HUGE ram pulled by several large Trolls, with Orc Archers around it, and pulled by 2 yak-like beasts...

Re: Siege equipments?
The normal ram for Mordor could be a tree-a-like ram just like the ones they first uses in Minas Tirith when they besiege smaller cities or castle and when it is bigger cities or castle then it could be Grond.
Tiro
Re: Siege equipments?
I don't really think that you can have different equipment for different cities. Grond could be recruitable... but rams will look the same for every faction. Atleast from my experience.

Re: Siege equipments?
In the book there is no reference to siege equipment used by men or elves. I think that only Mordor and maybe Isengard should have them.

Re: Siege equipments?
And maybe dwarves, they are at the end of all the most technical race in Middle Earth. I'd give atleast a catapult to them.
Civis
Re: Siege equipments?
No reference does not mean they didn't have siege equipment. btw do you mean siege equipment = catapults/trebuchets or siege equipment = ram, siege towers, ladders. It would be 'fake' if you can make only ladders as a 'good' faction.Originally Posted by Re Ruggero

Re: Siege equipments?
Gondor did have tons of trebuchets in minas tirith didn't they?

Re: Siege equipments?
If elves will have siege weapons, maybe High Elves could have something as good as dwarves but Silvan Elves could have same kind of ballistas as in LOTR:TW.
Civis
Re: Siege equipments?
agreed, but is it possible to add the explosives used at Helmsdeep?
Centenarius
Re: Siege equipments?
if elves were not able to capture cities then how they besieged angband?
but it will solve the problem of capturing new cities that don't have elven population
