Ballista a best
>>2658804
You dont tear walls down with ballistas.
>>2658776
Looks like a bitch to setup.
>>2658776
trebuchets are for overcompensating manlets
Those siege weapons are for different purposes.

>>2658886
Why didn't the Roman military invent counterweight trebuchets?
>>2658776
Spoon catapults never existed in history.
Go back to /v/.
>>2658895
they were called onagers
Those catapults never existed in real life.

Look at the picture, its not what OP posted
>>2658935
Sure they did
>>2658894
Because their enemies didn't tend to build large stone castles.
>>2658894
They used ramps and towers then fuggen charged within the walls, no fucks given
I'd rather have 300 of these than 10 trebuchet
>>2658804
>Point target artillery
>>2658946
Yeah, just large stone walls.
>>2658935
Let me guess, you also believe fire arrows and dual wielding didn't exist?

Can that thing launch boulders, corpses or flaming sand over 300 metres?
>ywn be a royal princess, having a bath and suddenly get hit by a trebuchet projectile as it crashes through the stone and mortar of your tower.
>>2660017
flaming sand?
>>2660325
Probably something he saw in a video game

treacherous threw thermal payloads all the time, as did spoon shaped catapults (they're called mangonels). I don't know what youtube historian you guys watch to get your info, but they sound pretentious.
