I know which gets better distance, but which throws higher? I'd assume the trebuchet, but it's possible I'm wrong.
The trebuchet can throw cows over castle walls from a safe enough distance to not worry about direct archery.
Um... forgive me, but isn't the verbiage "throw a 90kg projectile 300 metres" pretty against the idea of throwing a 400-600kg projectile a similar distance?
Back then full grown cows were 80kg and the size of a large dog today.
You'd be surprised how much disease you can pack in a 90kg piece of cow
Guaranteed to meet your maker on the first use or your money back!
The only place a catapult will send you is hell. You need a trebuchet to achieve heaven.
I'd say use the sling shot rides, but dont use a harness
Reach out and touch faith.
Isn’t there an Old Testament story where someone is walking down the road and gets back-kicked by an ox or something into then sky and is never seen again, presumed gone to heaven?
There's enoch, who was taken up to heaven by a chariot while on a stroll, I think. He supposedly 'walked with god' and was thus holy enough to not die or something. so there's your oxen (the chariot) and went into the sky and never seen again.
They forgot the splat wall! Well you wanna go to Jesus, don't you? Its 50% faster than splat flooring. Plus its easy to clean.
What do you mean results may vary?
A way to deal with the dominionist cult of the US, maybe even their foreign arms too.
What on earth is that machine??
That my friend, is an early (roman) catapult. Kind of a transitional siege engine between a giant crossbow and a torsion catapult
