(Beilieve me, I've been to re-enactements of Roman sieges, and the slightest change of eleveation could really screw up onagers. They had trouble adjusting the angle of their trajectory, and they had to re-aim after every shot.)

10th of Second Seed

The scorpions mainly targeted the infantry when they had to stop to pick up the wounded archers, as that was when they were easiest to hit. The fireballs were a big distraction to the scorpions, making it difficult for them to operate effectively, and damaging the wooden repairs to the walls. The archers had taken the precaution of having buckets of water on the wall, but nonetheless, another of the scorpions was disabled. One of the archers who had been posted as a lookout traced back the position of the mages from their fireball, and had about fifty archers launching fire arrows at the trees. Being a jungle, most trees were too moist to catch fire, but since it was nearly summer, and it was still the dry season, some trees were relatively dry, and a fire could easily spread.
