True. This makes them cheaper to build, easier to transport to the site, 
and quicker to move into position. But the main advantage was that they 
had more of them. We had 2 ramps - only 2 spots on the wall that the 
Trimarans had to defend against attackers. 

They brought 6 ramps, and poured over the wall like a flood. This made a 
huge difference in terms of how many fighters they had inside the fort 
when the whistle blew, and those left within the fort had to fight it 
out. *That* is what the fort battle is all about: getting fighters inside 
the fort, so they have a chance of defeating the defenders during the 
endgame.

However we decide to build the ramps, my advice is bring more! Oh, and 
make the 'Dillo a little shorter next time =8-]
