Siege Rams are a basic and common but effective Siege Weapon, essentially they're covered heavy mass (typically a felled tree trunk) being suspended by a frame and used to knock down enemy structures, walls and especially gates. Well protected from arrow fire and capable of garrisoning anywhere from 5 to 10 infantry for extra protection.
Siege Rams are typically constructed at your Fortress.
