Contrary to Warcraft III, I think it's better suited for an aoe anti-infantry weapon. And despite the use of demolishers, I think each race really needs something to build from workers, especially a combat naval unit. That's something I've learned about humans. They dominate on naval maps, and many others, if they can spam warships/catapults from mass quantities of workers

It is true that allowing humans to build units with workers is like giving them an extra tc for every worker they have.
Siege are the best human units. It is like giving the chance to a orc player to build an ettin in 2 turns without a building.

At catapult build speed, 2 workers are as fast as 1 tc. Now I do think humans should be the best at this, aside from maybe dwarves, but other races deserve a chance to compete. Gravedigger is a great start for undead at least, but what about orcs/elves. This is especially true, like I said, in naval maps.

Maybe we could give this to the glade wardens, maybe give it's upgrades like a upgrade that gives it an additional action, one to increase armour, one to increase range, and one to increase damage.
I'll probably redo the image.

we'll give some mechanical sieges to rising sun elves so that concept will go there
