Siege Weapons

Siege weapons are emplacements designed to destroy enemy fortifications and control areas of the battlefield.

Obtaining

All siege weapons, and their ammunition, can be crafted (see /recipes) To place a siege weapon, right click an area on the ground to place it. They require a certain area around the location to be clear of blocks and entities before they can be placed. To pick up a siege weapon which has been placed, break the block underneath it. To pick up a siege weapon after a server restart, right click the siege weapon, and it will be turned back into an item.

Blocks which name contains a word in this list or which name is a word in the list are 2 times more resistent to siege weapons like the Cannon and Trebuchet:

• "BRICKS"
• "STONE"
• "GRANITE"
• "ANDESITE"
• "DIORITE"
• "CONCRETE"
• "DEEPSLATE"
• "STONE_BRICKS"
• "TERRACOTTA"
• "SANDSTONE"
• "QUARTZ"

For example, "Polished Diorite" is more resistent than a block named "Dirt".

Siege weapons only break blocks during active battle sessions to prevent griefing while there are no fights happening, see War
