How would we attack a well-defended castle?

12.

Preferred weapons we can use is the battering ram, the ballista, and the mangonel. Battering ram can used to literally batter down the walls of the castle. The ballista is something similar to a giant crossbow and worked by using tension when launching missiles. The mangonel launched the missiles from a bowl-shaped bucket at the end of the one giant arm of the Mangonel.

Other methods we can also try is to arm the men with scaling ladders and scale the walls of the castle when attacking. Another option is treachery, traitors within the castle could turn on the inhabitants. Our last method is starvation. An effective siege strategy if time and cost was not a problem.

Once this is accomplished, raise the drawbridge so the attackers must swim, where they will be easy targets for the archers.
