Can anyone point me in the right direction to find the attack values cost etc for siege equipment? These value are mentioned in the Great Pendragon Campaign as being part of the new siege skill process. Although the DV (defence values) of various Castles are included the attack values for Trebuchets etc are not to be found .

Am I missing something?

If I recall correctly, in Pendragon, the siege equipment costs £10 per 1 point of DV it negates, and is not individualized to specific trebuchets etc. It is also considered to be consumed once it has been applied in a siege. I guess you could assume it is wages for the engineers, expended ammunition, broken ladders, replacement parts, etc...

Moriens remembers correctly (or we misremember the same thing).

In KAP4 we learn that siege equipment to lower the DV one point (in that context said to be valued £1, but I think £10 is more reasonable) consists of:
5000 arrows
250 ladders
4 ballistae
2 mangoels
1 trebuchet
1 siege tower
3 tortoises

Pretty awesome, huh?

Because I know that you are not frustrated enough by what we are working on and is not yet finished...
We are working on a BoCastles and Siege

No date for completion, no price or size
But I love it so far!

I am not the primary author.
