Moats were used to protect the castle because the people attacking the castle wouldn't go into the water and they would have to stay away from it which would be harder for them to attack.

Greek Fire: used for setting siege projectiles alight and setting fire to the enemy

# data[].attributes.body
The coolest weapon I found was the crossbow used for foot soldiers. It was primarily for military use. It was banned by the Christian Church in 1139.
There were many types of crossbows such as compound crossbows, repeating crossbows, recurve crossbows, pistol crossbows, rifle crossbows and bullet crossbows.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I found intresting is the weapons they use to defend themselves and castles with like Crossbow, ArrowLoop, Greek Fire, and the Ballista. The Arrow Loop was used for used to shot out but not get shot. Link show images of different arrow loops.

# data[].attributes.body
The coolest weapon I researched was the Baton. This was used for the Foot Soldiers.
This was a short stick made of whalebone or wood, and has been used since prehistoric times. This was one of the most simplest weapons and they used them as throwing weapons.

# data[].attributes.body
I found it interesting that the archers could shoot a fire arrow inside the castle, making the people inside the castle come out. This allows the attackers to take them prisoner.

# data[].attributes.body
Crossbow - At first was made from wood, but slowly changed into horn and sinew glued together. Crossbows took next to no time to master. The crossbow was banned by the Christian Church in 1139.

The coolest weapon i found was pickaxes

The Ballista: A medieval weapon that was similar to a large crossbow. It shot one large arrow quickly and took a relatively long amount of time to reload. It was similar to a catapult, but gave an advantage since it was faster.

Pickaxes To cut through thin walls

The coolest weapon I found was the crossbow because it can do damage from miles away and it can kill alot of people if you are using the repeating crossbow because you can just spam the weapon the whole time.

# data[].attributes.body
I found the fireball catapult interesting because these deal a lot of damage to structures and people which is good when you are trying to do you best to eliminate the other people and keep your castle.

When attacking a castle, I think we should use catapult to chip the stone walls away in the back of the attack. We should also use mantlets for defense against long ranged weapons to stall the enemies while the catapult is chipping away. If they use melee weapons, we will target them with crossbows. Also, if there are no enemies watching a part of the castle due to the massive main attack, we can use ladders to launch a small surprise attack on the defenders. We can also use fire on the crossbows and target enemies, not the castle wall and could also target anything made of wood so that it would spread and cause a lot more damage.

A huge and long ranged weapons are perfect for defence. Siege towers and ladders can't be transported, the enemy will be shot down, and long ranged weapons on their side will have no effect on stone and water. Their catapults and other potentially harmful weapons can be destroyed by our ones, (ballista) which have better range and accuracy.

Castles made out of stone were very hard for men to take down, so they used the battering ram to weaken or destroy walls or doors. A pixax's were used for castles with thinner walls.

The war hammer was an interesting weapon used in battle. It was a melee weapon that was used to deliver a pretty big blow to the head. And in some of the later times it had a spike on the end like showed in the picture below.

The Outer Curtain Wall

The ‘curtain wall’ was the vast stone wall which wrapped around the outside of a castle. As you might imagine, it’s called a ‘curtain’ because it covered everything within.

This wall was the main layer of defence, and it tended to be incredibly strong – for example, the curtain wall of Caerphilly Castle in Wales was more than 2 metres (that’s more than 6ft) thick.

Usually, the centre of the wall was made of rough rocks and rubble, and the outer parts were made of gigantic stones, laid like modern-day bricks.

This method of construction gave the ‘core’ of the wall extra strength, and it helped it to withstand battering-rams and missiles.
