-List of known playable Siege vehicles in Wrath of the Lich King:
+[[Category:Arena rewards: Season 4]]
-;[[Demolisher]]
-:This is the baseline vehicle upon which the rest are based. It has both short and long-range attacks and a ram attack. The vehicle can also carry up to 3 passengers as well as a driver. In this vehicle the passengers are exposed, allowing them to be targeted and attacked -- but also allowing them to do the same. The driver is also in control of both weapons.
-;[[Forsaken Catapult]]
-:This vehicle is much quicker than the Demolisher, with faster acceleration and quicker turning speed, but it doesn't have as long a range as the Demolisher and doesn't do quite as much damage. It also carries no passengers, but has a frontal flame attack. This is the lowest cost vehicle available.
-;[[Siege engine|Siege Engine]]
-:The hardest hitting and longest range vehicle of all, it carries a driver, gunner, and passengers. Unlike the Demolisher, the passengers are not exposed. The driver controls only a frontal ram attack, while the gunner is control of a fully mobile turret.
-;[[Dwarven flying machine|Flying Machine]]
-:A flying vehicle that is very quick but fragile, making it ideal for transport. It is highly vulnerable to anti-air weaponry. Carries a pilot and a gunner.
-;[[Gnomish bomber|Bomber]]
-:A flying vehicle bomber variant that was not shown at WWI. It was only mentioned that it will carry both a bomber and pilot, allowing it to drop bombs over the battlefield.
-;[[Shredder|Goblin Shredder]]
-:An anti-air vehicle that fires rockets and can rocket boost into the air to reach air vehicles or jump over walls. It essentially acts as a personal armor suit — if the suit is destroyed, a player can jump out and keep fighting. It has a close-range melee attack but is vulnerable to siege vehicles.
-They're still considering how to obtain the vehicles, but they want the process to be fast-paced and fun.<ref name="wowinsidernotes"/>
-== History ==
-While infantry and cavalry fight in close combat on the battlefield, siege weapons wage war across longer distances; catapults and trebuchets can drop explosive payloads on their targets with deadly accuracy. Enormous siege crossbows can hurl heavy iron bolts hundreds of feet to penetrate even the thickest armor.
-Siege weapons are usually fielded only by armies, which are able to transport and maintain them. Yet on occasion small groups such as the infamous [[Quarvel's Raiders]] have been known to use siege weapons to support lightning strikes on smaller targets.{{Cite|A&HC|120}}

-== Cut siege weapons ==
-In ''World of Warcraft'', most races have one or more types of nonfunctioning siege weapons stationed throughout their territories. It is unknown if these were an early stage of siege vehicle development, or just decorations.
-There were originally going to be "different siege weapons for different races".<ref name="1up"/> This hints at more types than were added, though the current types do not invalidate this.
-Cut weapons include:
-* Meat Wagons<ref name="1up"/>
-* Plague Spreaders<ref>http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=138018&page=2M</ref>
-* Ballistae (Shown firing in the WotLK trailer)<ref>http://media.worldofwarcraft.com/movies/video_loader/wow_video.htm?vid=wrath_of_the_lich_king_en&dir=wrath/movies/wrath-trailer&rating=wow</ref>
-The first two may be early concepts of the [[Forsaken Catapult]], and the ballista may be just a basic example (though some ballistae did become [[mob]]s<ref>[[Scarlet Ballista]]</ref>).
