The History of the Trebuchet!
One of the Medieval siege weapons used during the Medieval times of the Middle Ages was the Medieval Trebuchet. The Medieval Trebuchet was an invaluable Medieval siege attack weapon, similar to a catapult, which was used for hurling heavy stones to smash castle or city walls. Medieval engineers of the Middle Ages worked hard on the design of the Medieval Trebuchet to ensure that this siege weapon and the aim of this type of catapult, or sling, would have the greatest effect. The force of the Medieval Trebuchet was capable of reducing castles, fortresses and cities to rubble.
Although trebuchets are now obsolete, many engineers seek to recreate, redesign, and rebuild them for their own nefarious intentions. Many of the new designs feature higher weight-distance efficiencies. The floating arm trebuchet as well as the MRLIN are excellent examples of modern trebuchets.
