List 5 methods of defending a castle?

Answer 1

send all the women and children out of the castle in tunnels so that the food supply can be preserved.

try to build your castle on top of a steep hill, so you can see invaders and so that the invaders will find it hard to get to your castle.

if the invaders attempt to climb over the castle walls, throw down the ladders or shoot arrows at them.

if the invaders use movable towers to get over the walls, cover the ground around your castle with earth so that the invaders will not be able to wheel the towers.

be sure to stay inside the castle.
