The war boulder is a medieval defense and siege weapon used in [[Nisserige]]. |
The '''war boulder''' is a medieval defense and siege weapon used in [[Nisserige]]. War boulders were first used in the [[War of Suits]] in 900CE and were primarily used in the northern mountainous areas of Nisserige. They proved to be an effective defense tactic against large enemy numbers who often had to make long treks to the tops of mountain castles. Since the inception of the war boulder, several contraptions have been created and used to help bring the Boulder back up the mountain. In 1920, Nisserige officially retired the use of the war boulder but occasionally used it ceremoniously. |
