Interesting. I have to write that down.

What would you suggest, though, if I wanted to hurl a 90 kilo stone about 300 meters towards an enemy?

Only 300 meters? A gravity trebuchet is sufficient, though large bore naval guns can reach your enemies miles away.

I miss trebuchet memes. The only thing Reddit ever mastered.
