Archballista tower

Back in medieval times, ballistas were used as both an offensive and defensive tool for some of the greatest armies in the world. Ballistas are essentially very large crossbows that get their firing power from built-up tension. Much like a crossbow, a ballista uses tension from a string or rope that's pulled back to deliver power to arrows. This was an effective way of doing battle early on because ballista towers were capable of shooting much larger projectiles at a much faster speed than could be done with a regular bow.
