I thought about ballistae for a bit, but honestly a ballista in any form in this game is going to come off as and play like "crossbow but bigger".
I really like the whole "mage archer" idea though. The longbowmen thing with aiming mechanics that Verrkol mentioned is neat too but I also feel like the majority of players are going to get them confused with explorer archers or not see them as unique compared to explorer archers. I think that for a new archer to be successful it has to really stand apart from other archers in some way.
