These are weapons used to attack strongholds or sometimes ships. Their cost may be up to twice as high in a remote location. A siege engine that throws missiles (a ballista, onager, or trebuchet) must have a trained artillerist to fire it; this is person making the attack rolls for the weapon. Missile-throwing engines have attack penalties, detailed below. Note that siege engines are not generally usable against individuals or monsters; the GM may make exceptions for very large monsters like giants or dragons. Stats: cost 100 gp.
