Hey all, I need a word translated.
How do you call the thing that's drawn by horses that was used by roman to attack. The french word is 'char' but I can't for the life of me find the english one. Dictionary only gives me tank wich isn't appropriate in my opinion for fantasy warfare :P
Oh and if it helps orcs in WH have some of those things drawn by boars.
Anyway thanks :)

You should know by now that if there isn't a word for something in English, English-speakers will promply make one up. Haven't you ever heard of Sniglets (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sniglets) ?
