20 seems to be the magic number for Line of Sight.  Same as the effective range for a crossbow. (Note that a bolt can easily travel farther, just is never aimed past 20.)

IMO siege engines are practically worthless.

They're no more worthless than magma or waterwheels.  They're just hard to use properly, which is "too hard" for some.  But if applied with some planning, they're devastating, the only "weapon" that can take out some megabeasts easily. 

But there are other solutions to every problem - massed archers, arcane death traps, cave ins, etc.  In the end, it's personal preference.
