Rock Caster

The catapult is well known to each of nations of the Great Continent, but it's usually constructed right near the walls of the besieged city. Only the goblinish catapult has wheels and they carry it with them right from the gates of their own town to gates of your. Is it stupidity or foresight, is not clear, but it is possible to state the following with certainty: if an army of orces have appeared near the walls of your castle, then they have a catapult with them.
