Gandalf The Gray:

--- Zitat von: Der Dunkle König am 27. Aug 2015, 02:52 ---You say that it is possible because of their mass distribution or shape, but I want to know how exactly it works. I doubt that it is possible at all.

And I think I haven't said it yet, but I agree with korner, I think these ballistas are quite stupid. I don't believe that they could work in any way (, and i agree with Gnomi about physics in Middle-earth,) and I don't think that they are usefull at all. Why didn't the dwarves use shields against the arrows? If they really wanted to arrive quickly at the Erebor, why did they bother with bringing the ballistas all the way from the Iron hills? I think Peter Jacksons just wanted to put another special effect into the movie, of which is already has way to much, just because it might look cool, without deliberating if it really makes sense.

--- Ende Zitat ---
what if wee wait for the actual extended edition first watch some more about those
ballistas and then decide if they are stupid or not whada ya say ???

LordDainIronfoot:
In one of the screen I posted I surrounded the Arrow with Red line where can be seen what I believe is.the chain running trough the length of the Arrow and when the Arrow is fired it.begin to rotate and the chain is unleashed is attached to the back end of the Arrow and begin to rotate with the Arrow itself!
The other part about.how much can it fly well that depends on the strength of the Ballista if it can fire it with enough strength tp create enough cenetic energy for the Arrow to stat long enough in yhe air and j think that the Dwarven Ballista will have strength to fire it and  at least 100 -150 meter which is more than enough! :-) Over all I think it is quite possible and believable to some degree! :-)

Gandalf The Gray:
i wanna hear what crag lord has to say is it possible ?

LordDainIronfoot:
Of course it is possible but the Arrow wont be able to fly likr 500 meters :D
Also the weight distribution,well the Head Of.the.Arrow can be made heavier and the bacl.lighter to compensate for the weight of the Chain ! :-) And with the proper cutings and shape changes I do believe it is possible! :-)

Gandalf The Gray:
that s good then. jesus i wanna see the extended edition
