There are some links in the school projects introduction under siege warfare. There are also a larger number of links given by Levan in an answer to a recent inquiry about trebuchets (see http://www.castlesontheweb.com/quest/Forum12/HTML/000189.html ) Some of these are quite detailed and some are in french so I'd start with the links in the Intro first. ------------------ Visit Castellarium Philippis |

Rachel, some weapons looked like giant axes, BIG crossbows, and catapults. |

that's a good one!  Catapults and similar devices looked more like huge spoons on a carriage then like a giant axe. |
