2. of course all faction could use seige weapons but some would be faction specific Mumakil would not be classified as a siege weapon that'd be like classifying a horse as a weapon because you ride them in battle. Elephants were used by many of the eastern Muslim countries irl. They were more for psychological damage and were practically tanks, but they weren't siege weapons, they weren't used to ram into buildings. They weren't used much in the siege of Minas Tirith more the Battle on the Feilds of Pelenor and the fight with the Rohirhimm. Just because something is big and is there at a siege doesn't make it s siege wepaon.
