A superior piece of medieval siege weaponry which is capable of hurling ninety kilogram projectiles over a distance of
three hundred metres using a
one-tonne counterweight. Capable of smashing castle
walls with ease, unlike those inferior catapults.
Plebeian: The catapult is
the best piece of siege weaponry in
history.
Dominus: Can it hurl 90kg projectiles over 300m using a counterweight?
Plebeian: No...
Dominus: Then the trebuchet is vastly superior.
