Every Roman legion relied on more than just disciplined infantry. The Early Imperial Roman Bolt Shooter, known as the Scorpion or Manuballista, provided devastating long-range firepower and gave Roman commanders a powerful tool for both battlefield engagements and defensive operations.
This set contains 4 Roman Imperial bolt thrower miniatures, representing the light artillery pieces operated by legionaries. Capable of launching large bolts with far greater range and force than traditional bows, these machines added precision and destructive power to Roman formations.
Each Roman century within a legion could be equipped with one of these weapons, crewed by regular soldiers trained to operate the engine. They were deployed in open battle, used to strengthen fortifications and played an important role during siege warfare.
With their distinctive design and historical significance, these models provide an excellent addition to any Imperial Roman army. They bring another layer of authenticity to historical battles while representing the engineering skill and tactical organisation that made Rome's military forces so effective.
