Gurnisson the Barbarian is a Stronghold hero.

It is interesting that Ballistics secondary skill does not buff Ballista. The latter works better via Artillery, which explains why that is Gurnisson's starting skill instead of Ballistics (even though his skill with the Ballista is referred to as "Ballistics", not "Artillery").
