[Ansteorra] Am I just wrong

Actually, that would fall under the category of specialty siege ammunition:

page 9, III. Siege Ammunition, F.
Specialty siege ammunition is intended to simulate specialty ammunition 
(e.g.,
flaming oil pots or flaming javelins) or effect weapons (e.g., diseased 
animal corpses
or the heads of decapitated messengers). Specialty missiles will have damage
determined in the scenario rules. Most effect weapons will have little 
or no damage
potential, and therefore should be used sparingly. Specialty siege 
ammunition may be
used as long as it does not exceed the weight or construction 
limitations of the
approved ammunitions.

So while it may not necessarily kill your opponent, it can be a lot of 
fun and distract the hell out of them.
