Siege weapons on walls

I have yet to play a Total war Mod of any kind in which you are able to mount siege weapons ( catapult heavy scorpion trebutche e.t.c) on walls could this be done in BC it would make this mod realistic and aw-inspiring

and also pouring boling hot oil or even sand over the walls on your determined foes

about boiling oil... i believe there was such a thing in RTW.
Also, i agree it would be cool to be ablte to mount ballistas or rocket launcher to the walls, but seriously though... it would make the attacker(the sieger) impossible to take the walls. And its enough that you can upgrade your towers with Ballista and cannon.

King arsen in medieval combat the attackers never had the advantage. and pluse if a attacker new that taking a settlement walls wasn't going to be easy he simply sent his armies in organized waves (peasents first) one after the other to try to weaken the defenders. if this is implemented it will force new strageities to be created by the A.I player or a human player. Ultamately it will bring a new level of gameplay.

New/Modification of Siege weaponry == Not something BC team members do.

Unfortunately, its something no one can do at this point. In the future I'm sure someone will crack the code.

Yeah I know that. Im not that stupid, the one controling the towers and walls are the one with advantage.
Unless the enemy has trebuchet or other good siege weapons.
But im just saying, bare in mind that this is a Game.

And I have wanted this since RTW. The discussion has always been. But its just that it would give some unbalance.
But as I said, it would be cool to recruit a Ballista, and when deploying armies, deploy it on a wall.

It would be cool(well they did in LOTR Siege of Gondor. Mass Trebuchets on the walls.

its a good thing to do, hope someone realises the way to do it, it remember me of a true medieval game "stronghold", it was a complete game, because the way to obtain resouces and weapons (i recommend it to the medieval fans).
