Conquest - Hundred Kingdoms - Trebuchet

Castles and men at arms form the backbone of the feudal might of the Hundred Kingdoms. Well aware of this, the Emperors of the Tellian Empire wished to ensure that the ability to breach fortifications and sweep those men from the battlefield remained unmatched amongst their vassals. The Imperial Collegia were created to develop these deadly machines of war, something they continue doing at the behest of the Imperial Throne, even when the Emperors of old are long gone. The monopoly on the advanced principles needed to successfully construct these deadly machines of war is one of the tools the Imperial Chamberlain often employs, allowing chosen allies, even if temporary ones, to wield the awesome might of these power machines against their foes.
