CooldownOnce per character
You've been studying the walls of [fortress name] for days, and you see what appears to be a crack in one place - possibly the result of an old earthquake, or just negligence. It's hard to hit with your catapults and the ground is too rocky to mine, but you reckon troops with pickaxes by themselves could bring it down - assuming they were willing to brave the storm of arrows and rocks that would no doubt come pouring from the battlements above.
