History

Which destructive outcome was amplified during Roman siege warfare due to unsustainable timber supply?

A)Increasing catapult projectile variance
B)Escalating costs for siege ramps
C)Accelerated velocity of trebuchet stones
D)Widespread defensive wall fires

💡 Explanation

The widespread defensive wall fires was the result. Heat transferred via CONDUCTION from burning siege engines to fortress walls easily ignites fortifications because sustained assault created continuous accumulation of combustible material, therefore causing defensive wall's structural compromise, rather than merely projectile inaccuracies.
