The best castle to attack with a battering ram is one with a solid wooden gate or door, as these structures are designed to be breached. Castles with weaker or older fortifications, particularly those lacking reinforced stone walls, are more vulnerable to a battering ram's force. However, any castle with a robust defensive design, such as a drawbridge or heavily fortified entry points, can significantly diminish the effectiveness of a battering ram. Therefore, targeting a castle with a less fortified entrance maximizes the battering ram's effectiveness.
