I present to you one of Avalonias light siege weapons. Pulled by one horse this device makes a deadly and quick part of Avalonias Siege Forces. This fits perfect with my light cavalry, one of them is in the background.

That's really nice!

Is that an original lego string? They are much better than the ones I find in regular stores...

Not so sure about that red piece, though... Was it the only one availabe? A black one would look better, IMHO...

Nice ballista, I like the sturdy look combined with the tension of the string.

Maybe you could cut back the excess string. A real thick rope would not defy gravity like this.

I could see this becoming a battle pack. Try and get noticed by Lego on this website http://lego.cuusoo.com/

Small, but effective. Great job "de Gothia!"

Very nice 'de Gothia' my fellow Avalonian defender.....I'm planing one too - with a winding mechanism too...that Tigerius is a clever knight.

Avalonia Forever !

Nice work, de Gothia. Light artillery is always good to have. Between your ballistas and my trebuchets, Avalonia will be well-prepared to assault enemy fortifications.

Nice, great work!

I love it. Simple and yet so Lego.

Nice and simple, perhaps try to add something to indicate a crank on the end.

Simple but beautiful design. I like that it appears to be quite mobile AND deadly. We certianly need a few of these in case the drow or Nocturnians get bold.

Thanks guys!

The red horse thing is the only colour I have...

The excess strings have been cut off

I´ve been thinking of adding a crank, but can´t figure out how...
