Trebuchet


     A weapon used to break down walls and destroy buildings. The Trebuchet was a siege weapon used by many civilization during the Medival Era. Similar to what a catapult does, the weapon's main objective is to destroy walls, fortress, castles or any other buildings. The difference between these two that makes a trebuchet better and more unique than a catapult is its firing mechanism. A catapult propels a hard object towards its target whereas a trebuchet uses a sling method. The sling method hurls an object with better accuracy and better force applied. to make it simpler, a trebuchet destroys better than a catapult.
