War machines in Heroes V.

I tested it myself, and a well-upgraded ballista for the Elves is, to put it mildly, a devastating weapon. When I enchanted the ballista (arrow) with Earth Shock, nothing remains of the living, not even golems are helped by magic resistance; they die. Judge for yourself: three shots + a spell cast on the target for each shot; you can enchant it with Meteor Shower and something else. In short, it's awesome; I wiped everyone out, as always, I'm satisfied! :)
