Dwarven Siege Engines are tank-like vehicles which are constructed and usually manned by dwarves and used as replacements to the Dwarven Steam Tanks. The sturdy Dwarven Siege Engines are a new addition to the Alliance forces during their battle with the Scourge. Though many believe the siege engine is an unwieldy vehicle slowed by its thick layer of armor.Template:Cite, the stalwart Dwarven pilots have even been known to coax them up to surprising high speeds to ram enemy structures and reduce whole fortifications to dust under the Siege Engines' steel treads. Some Siege Engines were upgraded with anti-air rockets to take out enemy fliers. They can be seen guarding Alliance lands and outposts.

In World of Warcraft, these vehicles are never seen firing or in motion, but perhaps in WotLK they will be usable by players. Steam Tonks are likely a taste of these vehicle’s animations and controls. Steam Tonks are a remote controlled toy version available at the Darkmoon Faire. Players can use them to fight other steam tonks. Some siege engines appearing to belong to higher ranked individuals, like Pilot Stonegear of the Siege Brigade, have more exhaust pipes, different pistons on the sides and wolf heads in the place of the standard eagle. There is also a 'drag' vertion that has wheels in place of the front roller and a sleeker body.
