If you peasent rail gun something upwards, you can throw it high enough to take 20d6 damage falling on someone, given your peasents are able to hand off something 200lbs.

That doesn't work anyway, as the item would only be dropped next to the final peasant, as per the rules of the game.
Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure a variant of that attack featured prominently in Final Fantasy: Advent Children.
I think the idea is to have the final peasant be above the enemy and to drop the “missile.” Assuming the missile is a Small or larger creature, the falling rules from Tasha’s would apply:
In other words, a max of 10d6 damage, DC 15 Dex save to avoid it entirely.
