O-Gata Dohou

The o-gata dohou, literally, “stone-throwing machine”, used mechanical principles to fling heavy stones, flaming balls of pitch, scrap, corpses, or anything else handy over long distances. Mounted on wheels and served by a crew of up to six depending on the size, the o-gata dohou was used primarily in siege warfare to batter fortifications and destroy buildings. The Crab also used it as an antidemon and antipersonnel weapon to fling sanctified stones or flaming projectiles at fiends from the Shadowlands that were attacking the Kaiu Wall.
