HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 day agoI 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?

You’d be surprised how much disease you can pack in a 90kg piece of cow

Back then full grown cows were 80kg and the size of a large dog today.
