Seige Weapons...FUN!






The topic I chose is seige weapons. The mideval people had some very advanced seige technology, from arrows to giant trebuchets. Let's start with trebuchets. To narrow it down to modern times, it's almost a lethal version of pumpkin chunkin'. You load the rock or whatever ammo you decide is the best to take down an empire.
You then MUST lock the swing arm into place. After that, you can load the bucket with rocks. This will give the swing arm thrust to sendthe ammo flying.
Now let's move on to the ballista, or a giant crossbow. Flaming arrows were sent flying over tower walls.
