====== Siege Weapons ======

Siege weapons are used to destroy enemy fortifications, defend key positions, and eliminate enemy players.

**Obtaining Siege Weapon**

To craft a siege weapon and its ammunition, you must unlock the Warsmithing and Fletching profession skills in blacksmithing.


====== Cannons ======

Cannons are ranged artillery primarily used to destroy enemy structures or take out infantry.

**Placing & Destroying**

To place a cannon, right-click on a 1x3 surface. To destroy a cannon, break the block underneath it.

**Aiming**

  * To point the cannon __leftwards__, do Shift + RClick
  * To point a cannon __rightwards__, do Shift + LClick

  * To point a cannon __upwards__, do LClick
  * To point a cannon __downwards__, do RClick


**Loading**

To load the cannon, right-click on the cannon with __gunpowder pouches__ 3 times. Then, load your projectile (cannonball or canister shot) by right-clicking the __front of the cannon__.

  * Cannonball: Penetrates up to 4 blocks, ideal for destroying fortifications.
  * Canister Shot: Anti-infantry round that spreads like a shotgun but doesn’t damage blocks.

**Firing**

Once the cannon is loaded, light it with flint and steel. You must wait for the smoke to clear before loading and firing again.

====== Ballistas ======

Ballistas are powerful projectile weapons that launch bolts at infantry, dealing heavy damage.

**Placing & Destroying**

Ballistas can be placed anywhere, but must be at least 3 blocks away from another siege weapon. To destroy a ballista, break the block underneath it. To mount it, right-click the ballista.

**Aiming**

The ballista will automatically follow your cursor, but has a 180-degree aiming range from its placement spot.

**Loading**

Right-click the ballista with a steel bolt and keep right-clicking until the bolt is fully drawn back.

**Firing**

Once loaded, left-click to fire.
