Ballistas and Logcannons


Plankbreaker

Recommended Posts

Greetings viewers,

 

While playing skyrim on the more hardcore difficulties, some of you might have noticed that cities across the land dont have the firepower or manpower to defend themselves against

hordes of unrelenting dragons.

So i propose of creating suitable defences worthy of protecting it, like they did in times of war.

These new ideas are as follows,

-Crossbows (Heavier than the bow, faster fire rate and longer aiming distance, enchantable, upgradable and a basis for city marksman (imagine this with Dragonbane enchantment!))

-Ballistas (Agile and deadly, this would be effective against even the toughest of dragons, it would be as an emplacement or mobile and require 2 people to operate.)

-Longcannons (Why not? If youve played a game called Paraworld youll know, basically its big, bulky and slow firing but a deathblow if used properly, it would require 4 people to operate.)

-Gunpowder Cannons (Just like in pirates of the Carribean, mounted on pallisades and alongside ports and starboards of war ships!) :pirate:

-Guns (Maybe, the ole fashion ones like the Carabiner that require tons of gunpowder and cleaning time!)

 

Note that this would require someone to make ships ALIVE!!!

So they can be navigated, fire weapons, harbor a small army and most importantly get blown the fudge up!

Although Skyrim already has catapults, though their rare, this would just make a great addition to its arsenal! (maybe the Elves could have some elven stuff too! maybe)

Just give it a though, if you decide to create this, know that youll be doing a great act,

contributing to war and suffering throughout skyrim! :nuke: YEAHHHH!!!

While a good idea there are no guns/cannons/gun powder in the Elder scrolls. Try and think of more medieval viking tyoe things. Ballistas are good, and the game already has catapults, so maybe like a trebuchet. Though to be honest no siege weaponry would be effective agaisnt flying dragons, they were either use to smash enemy troops are assault castle walls.

For the record, there are ballistas in vanilla Skyrim as well. However, I agree that they'd be next to useless on a dragon in flight, even if they were modded so that they player could reposition them. I'd rather see some destructible environments added to the civil war and use siege weapons in that setting.
