It seems that battering whit full hp is destroyed when attacked by enemy warrior or barbarian brute. Warrior seems to take 2-3 damage in return while brute takes about 10.
Whit -25% defence penalty ram still has 9.75 combat strength while warrior/brute has only 8 combat strength Am I missing something obivious or is it a bug?
I tried this whit egyptian and spanish warriors and barbarian brutes in two different games so it should be easy to reproduce.
 
It seems like battering rams get -75% on defense (-25% Defense Bonus + -50% Bonus VS Domain) and combined with a -20% Terrain Modifier in open terrain, you get an one-shot kill. The additional penalty might be a bug and it's only supposed to get an -50% in CEP since it would be strange to split the penalties up like that.
 
This will be fixed when we add the leaders updates, which should be sometime this week. The changes made to rams in Gem were:

- removed defense penalty
- added a more powerful vs-city bonus that works on defense
