The abandoned outer wall presents a serious obstacle to the siege engines.

The elves inside the inner wall fire the trebuchets, but something goes horribly wrong. The great boulders, instead of flying over the wall, crash straight into it, leaving 8 gaping holes in the inner walls, one for each trebuchet. The 16 ballistae are also fired, but instead of launching spears of death as intended, their swing arms snap before firing.
