The ballista / catapult weapons can hurl boulders and ‘explosive ordnance’. When either of these projectiles land amongst a group of troops, some of the characters will be scattered about the immediate area by the force of the impact.

They will briefly run around and then fall to the ground, however there is no burnt or charred clothing or flesh.
