ITL 115: small ballista 5d damage. Blow through is 3d for human size, 2d for small, 4d/hex for larger. 450 pounds, $2000 (Reload time is 24 turns divided by crew size (max two)) Roll 3/ST for each minute cranking or lose one fatigue.

It is both braced and on a ship, so these cancel out in calm waters.

Treat bolts as Javelins that weigh five pounds and cost $50 each.

Ships have 2 * sqrt(empty weight in pounds) hit points. Wooden planks have a blow through of 2d and armor that stops 2 hits. Apply this to each bulkhead along the flight path.
