Longboat 7 Tips to Counter the Mangonel Line
a mangonel is countered by a mangonel.
Cavalry and infantry units deal bonus damage to mangonels and siege units in general.
They are countered by fast moving cavalry that can dodge their projectiles and close the gap.
They are the primary counter to archers and skirmishers utilizing their attack ground command.[1]
Friendly fire is a major issue so never fire them directly into your own melee engagements.
Other mangonels can destroy them in intense micro heavy siege wars.[1]
Monks can convert them safely from a distance if you do not have Light Cavalry support.
