To start with, you need couple of decent carpenters to build one correctly. A lot of strong wood, heavy weights to act as counter balance and something heavy to lob at the enemy. Then you need brave people to work the machine. Trebuchets were very dangerous to operate.
Oh and you also need someone who understands how the correct balance on the trebuchet is crucial. If you don't have the swing arm set up perfectly, the trebuchet could collapse or swing wildly and kill the people on the ground. They are a bit tricky.
