Oil tipper

The oil tipper is a defensive tool in Stronghold Legends.
==Description==
The oil tipper works just like the stone tipper in Stronghold 2. It is mounted on a wall section, holding boiling oil instead of rocks. When the tipper is turned upside down, the oil is released and it burns a huge area under of it. The tipper needs some time to recharge before the next use.
It can only be placed by players of the Good faction.
==Usage==
Just like its predecessor, the oil tipper can be used to hold back a wave of enemies, particularly those that attempt to get on the wall by the means of a ladder or a siege tower. The fire created by the oil can burn down ladders and unarmored enemies, preventing a ladder set-up or a strike. It also has a considerably shorter recharge time between two uses, making somewhat more useful than the stone variant.
However, it carries the same disadvantages as the stone tipper: vulnerability to stone-hurling machines, like catapults and trebuchets, high price and low effective range.
