First off, 8.7 is poorly worded and being rewritten.
Second, there will not be any ramparts, castle walls, etc. in basic Warrior.
That will all be in Siege Warrior, along with what artillery does what to such
targets, etc. Certainly bombards will be the weapon of choice for castle walls.
Third, I am pretty sure bombards of the 14th and 15th centuries were not
parabolic-arc weapons, like a trebuchet. I am checking my facts with our
resident medieval siege expert, but don't hold out any hope of indirect fire
bombards.
