Roman Ballistae in Modern Popular Culture
#21
If they are on ox-drawn carts (max speed 2mph), they aren't going anywhere quickly - even infantry could easily capture them. I imagine that if the Roman force were made to retreat, they'd try to remove key metal components (such as the ratchet plate from Elginhaugh?) and leave the rest...
