Need a giant unit that can throw big rock like Cyclops guy but better range

This could be a good way to deal with lacking artillery siege machine in this game. A bit light fantasy and more mythic units are always fun.

    While I am not sure they will be an artillery given that I did see giant bowmen it be interesting to see what they would do for a giant slinger would look like.

    Oh God! Please no!
    At least make it optional. I'm enjoying the "truth behind the myth" approach and if I see things like giants destroying walls the first thing I would do would be to mod the game to remove those units as soon as possible.

    The Cyclops in this game is roughly one-two heads taller than the average soldiers. So how far could he possibly fling a boulder?

    In that case just ask for the Polybolos to be introduced.

    How about making it optional like Romance mode and Record mode in 3k?

    Maybe a big sling with medium size rock could increase range and still deal damage to the wall when it's used by a supernatural strength from a giant.

    Polybolos wasnt invented in Troy era.
