Description

A large war machine designed to knock down walls and doors, used by ramming the large log into the wall you wish to no longer exist.

Usage

First, move or drag the battering ram into position, facing the wall or door to be destroyed. Then, with the battering ram in position very close to or against the object, select "ram" within its right-click menu. The battering ram will then ram the object with damage dealt upon each action as described below.

Unlike many actions in Wurm, multiple requests to perform the ram action cannot be queued. Attempts to queue further actions beyond the initial one are met with a message of: "You cannot use the battering ram right now as it is already being used."
