Any thoughts on how the Romans used carriage ballista (carroballista)?
It seems a rough ride to sit in the back with one of those things and I wonder if it soldiers would actually try to load and fire one of those things in a wobbly carriage. Perhaps they used the carriage for rapid movement and unloaded for a stable firing platform and quick getaway?
