Poor morale

Most basic unit of all. However, it's useful if you want to "transfer population" from one settlement to another (Show me How). The eastern peasants are all tougher, though (living in the desert?).

The last attribute is totally unjust. These machines are priceless whe taking cities because they are able from a safe position to devastate enemy forces which are behind the walls, leading to panic. With luck and skill you can exterminate half the enemy army before going in.
