War machine is common term used for when referring either to ammo cart, ballista, first aid tent or catapult. Basically they are all special combat units which are available in most of the battles. The only exceptions are creature banks and shipwrecks, where none of the war machines are used. They all have a special slot reserved just for a particular war machine.
Typically war machines except catapults are bought from blacksmiths, which sell different war machine depending on the town type. Additionally, war machines can be bought from an adventure map location called war machine factory, which sell all war machines except catapults. All heroes have catapult with them, and if one is destroyed in the combat, a new one is automatically added to hero's catapult slot.
- Ammo Cart - Endless ammunition.
- Catapult - Breaches castle walls. Only used when assaulting a town with a Fort, Citadel, or Castle. Affected by Ballistics skill.
- First Aid Tent - Heals friendly troops. Affected by First Aid skill.
War machines do not affect and are not affected by your Morale, and have no effect on your Adventure Map movement.
Comments
War machines can be a liability against area shooters like Magogs and Liches/Power Liches, but they can also absorb hits from Chain Lightning.
Wandering creatures tend to attack the Ballista instead of your troops. They are usually too weak to destroy it.
