As far as i know there are three: the basic catapult, trebuchet, and the floating arm trebuchet.
The difference is that the trebuchet sling the stone or fireballs .A catapult doesn't sling and it doesn't carry as much weight
The most famous battle was probably the siege of Stirling where King Edward used the famous "Warwolf" trebuchet to level the Scots. They were also used in almost every siege in the Crusades.
it would depend. if you make a catapult outta good wood it would throw them farther, but if yo put a long rope on the trebuchet it might be a tie.
The trebuchet pouch release mechanism works by using a trigger or lever to release the pouch containing the projectile. When the trigger is activated, it releases the pouch, allowing the projectile to be launched by the trebuchet's swinging arm.
They are using Trebuchet bold 0pt kerning.
The traction trebuchet was first invented between 5th - 4th century BC, when it is first mentioned in a 4th century Chinese text. The first evidence of a trebuchet is a 4th century text compiled in pre-Imperial China. The Chinese named the later counterweight trebuchet Huihui Pao, where Pao means bombard. The trebuchet spread to the Mediterranean by 6th century AD. The Byzantine Empire began using the trebuchet in the 6th century, and it is mentioned in the Strategicon of Maurice by Emperor Maurice. The counterweight trebuchet is mentioned in the work of the 12th century Byzantine historian Niketas Choniates.
Trebuchet is catapult that uses weight to fire.

A trebuchet uses the force of gravity to propel its projectile. The counterweight falling creates kinetic energy, which is transferred to the arm of the trebuchet and then to the projectile, launching it forward. Additionally, the leverage provided by the long arm of the trebuchet amplifies this force.
