Nice thanks.

Now make it able to fire 20 spaces xD

Actually I want a unit that can do that now D:

how about weaker strengh range but fires further

interesting but may need some minor balancing, perhaps weaker ranged strength but stronger combat strength?

Is this keep on upgrade or a one time thing?

Great work! I thought of the same thing, searched it, and it was already done by you, exactly as how I wanted it to be! I hope you'll make more mods! Keep it on! :)

is it any stronger asides from the no set up?

Where's Nau's sell exotic goods promotion?... I remember there was mod about this. Still looking for it...

I have one personal request - can you switch polish winged hussars into the replacement of knights (instead of lancers, which as cavalry class came way after the end of hussars; while at the end of Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth was turning into cavalry)? I'm asking because this unit was used in such wide purposes as knights/cavalry used to be, not purely anti-cavalry unit .

heheh Krajzen "good mods"

Bashee - haha apparently 1889 people don't think it was strong enough XD Thanks for good rates, I really didn't expect such success - making this mod took me one good idea and few minutes XD

As if the Ballista wasn't strong enough yet :I

many thanks bra

The Ballista is powerful enough especially when used with the Legion, it can 3 shot a city.

simple, yet very VERY effective. Well done good sir, well done.

Pretty awesome, that really helps with the Rome gameplay!

Now I can conquer that Greek expansionist...

I thought that was ezio for a moment. :P Nice mod though

perfect i think you even taught me a thing or 2 about rome :)

Love this mod. Makes the early game combat of Rome (which should be powerful due to its special units) more viable as a strategy.

Very nice. I like it. Ill probably use this mod in my normal single player games.

From a power point of view, you might want to weaken it slightly in return for that mobility. It's a good idea, though.
Historically, by the Late Empire period, they even had a light ballista in a cart that could be moved around the battlefield, you can see that in the Rome: Total War expansion.

good job, really like how you fixed the ballista to be more historically accurate!

That's cool. I didn't know they were easily transported, and this makes them notably more effective. Nice mod.

Very interesting, now legions are really mighty.

Thanks! I encourage you to continue to develop this kind of realistic mods.

Thanks for the whole support - to be honest I am shocked, I never expected my simple mods and especially this tiny mod (3 minutes of work :p) to be on top of the week ;0

Good work, well done. Having great fun playing with the mod. Thx for contributing!

Frost, TIL

Nice mod, however I want to point out that the plural of ballista is ballistae not ballistas.

Nice Idea!

good idea

@syrup both have been done on the workshop before, just search them,
@Krajzen, some modders found a way to get hotseat multiplayer working with mods, so even if it's only LAN, it's still possible.

Hey if your looking for mod ideas I thought it would be awesome if you buffed the samuri since the samuri is the same strength as the long swords man and a dojo might be cool to add replacing the barracks

Thorgrim -> uhm... Mods don't work in multiplayer :( (by the way, this makes complaining on 'overpowered' mods a bit pointless)

Shouldn't be an issue. Artillery is pretty easy to destory vs. the computer so what odds if they get move and fire? Might be a bit OP in multi-player but that shouldn't dictate the single player game to much. Besides the Romans were meant to be feared. This'll put the fear of Augustus into you ;-)

BRILLIANT! I love playing as Rome and invading everybody (with lots of Legions and Ballistae) so this is perfect!

Die, Attila!

Thank you. My biggest problem with Rome was the ballista.

@pythonz. You think a cannon with that promotion is overpowered, try artilery with one such promotion.

very interesting idea but does it get the "has to set up before attack" promotion when upgraded cause having like 4 cannons like this would be a bit broken

Does it keep the lack of "has to set up to attack" if you upgrade it? That would be a little bit unbalanced...

I like this, very useful and very accurate.

I must admit this is one of my favourite ideas - it is pretty historical and really unique :) (while removing negative 'has to set up to attack' promotion is extremely easy) Glad you're liking it ;)

i have always gotten upset when i cant attack with my catapult because of the set up mechanic so this will make me play the romans more:)
