| has gloss | eng: Roman siege engines were, for the most part, adapted from Hellenistic siege technology. Relatively small efforts were made to develop the technology; however, the Romans brought an unrelentingly aggressive style to siege warfare that brought them repeated success. Up to the first century BC the Romans utilized siege weapons only as required and relied for the most part on ladders, towers and rams to assault a fortified town. Ballistae were also employed, but held no permanent place within a legions roster until later in the Republic and were used sparingly. Julius Caesar took great interest in the integration of advanced siege engines, organizing their use for optimal battlefield efficiency . |

| has gloss | bul: Метателните съоръжения (tormenta) при римляните били заимствани от гърците и са разнообразни по своята същност. Делят се на съоръжения, стрелящи по права линия, и на такива, стрелящи по парабола. От друга страна последните могат да се класифицират на такива, изстрелващи стрели (еутитони) или камъни (палинтони). С развитието на обсадното изкуство обсадните машини били пригодени да изстрелват както стрели, така и камъни. |

| has gloss | fra: Les engins de siège romains étaient, pour la plupart, dérivés des techniques de siège grecques. Relativement peu d’efforts ont été accomplis pour faire évoluer la technologie, mais les Romains ont développé sans relâche un style agressif de guerre de siège. Jules César apporta beaucoup de soins à intégrer les progrès des engins de siège et entreprit d'organiser leur utilisation pour une efficacité optimale sur le champ de bataille . |
