As long as the main gate is closed, none in the city can escape. Of course, in case of someone using Wards to block the fireball, we'll also need regular catapults as supporting weapon, it can hurl both firebombs (note: a burning oil pot) and corpses. Imagine the fiery corpses openly slauthering the living inside a boiling pot."

Straid's squad brought a few deactivated Dwemer Spider, a Dwemer Sphere and Dwemer Metal Ingots from the ruin at the southwest of Markarth.

Straid: "As for the automations whom the historians referred as Animunculi, there should be a Dwemer ruin at the southwest of Markarth, there we can find a plenty supplies of deactivated Dwemer Spiders and Sphere Guardians. Controlling a Animunculi is relatively simple, we need to replace the batteries of the automations with a Soul Gem charged with White Souls regardless size, and a Conjuration Staff molded with Dwemer Metal attached with another charged white Soul Gem, although we can also plant Black Soul Gems into the automations to create a sentient automation without the need of the controlling staves. Perhaps the reason why the people of the past failed because they used Black Soul Gems for the controllers instead of White Soul Gems." Madanach looked flabbergasted, he'd never met someone with as much tactical skill as him. He looked to a chest filled with riches he and his kind never intended to use on a regular basis. He walked to it and brought out a hoard of white soul gems.

"This'll do nicely, as for the staff, my Briarhearts and mages can make one, but they might need help from a master conjurer. Sadly, I know none."

"However, if our current plans don't work, I've thought of using mammoths with steel strapped to their heads in order to break down a wall or two. A stupid idea, but it might be effective."

(I'm really goin' for the mammoth rams here.)
