Counterweight or not trebucket doesn’t destroy walls.

“In spite of the evidence regarding increasingly powerful counterweight trebuchets during the 13th century, “it remains an important consideration that not one of these appears to have effected a breach that directly led to the fall of a stronghold.” In 1220, Al-Mu’azzam Isa laid siege to Atlit with a trabuculus, three petrariae, and four mangonelli byt could not penatrate past the outer wall, which was soft but thick… As late as the Siege of Acre (1291), where the Mamluk Sultanate fielded 72 or 92 trebuchets, including 14 or 15 counterweight trebuchets and the remaining traction types, they were never able to fulfill a breaching role. The Mamluks entered the city by sapping the northeast corner of the outer wall.”

Can I request that you stop slandering me? I’ve tried to genuinely help you, giving you massive lists of things to improve at if you want to get better at the game. If you choose not to take it, you won’t get better. And even if you’ve played hundreds of games, your skill level isn’t where it should be to make good balance suggestions. You could change this, but you’ve chosen not to. So considering I’ve actually tried to help you, you need to stop insulting me like this, it isn’t acceptable, and breaches the terms of service. @moderators, can you please help with this, I’ve tried to help @PrimusCives improve at the game, but they ignore my helpful advice, and continue flaming me anyway.

Here’s my example of how I’ve tried to provide advice, but it’s been ignored: Smurfing impact on AO2 - #33 by TheConqueror753

So it’s ok for you to complain about smurfs that weren’t smurfs, but not for me to give actual advice for you to improve with?

This is just incredibly toxic, you really need to stop.

What’s really funny about the britons range imo that in theory it’s so insanely strong, especially on cerain map types where you can abuse that range…
But practically there is still often some way to deal with it and be it just for one time a lack of attention of the briton player.

And for this reason there is also absolutely no need for change.

@moderators, can you please delete this post? I honestly find it to be an incredibly offensive personal attack, especially considering I genuinely tried to help @PrimusCives improve at the game.

Come on people, how has this not been flagged? Or deleted, @moderators, it’s a massive breach of the following rules for the code of conduct:
[quote=]

DON’T…

  • Flame or attack fellow forum members. Discussion and heated debated are fine; name calling, personal attacks, and trolling (to name just a few) are not.
  • Post offensive or derogatory comments, including those of a racial, religious, or sexual nature. This includes your username, signature line, and title.
  • Bypass the profanity filter.
  • Call out other players in threads. If you have an issue, take it to PMs or contact us directly at agecommunityall@service.microsoft.com.

    And yes, maybe I’m breaking the final rule I listed, but the fact that no action has been taken so far is :sob:, considering I’m being targeted with extremely toxic insults from @PrimusCives. You can delete this post if you want, but please do the same to the post I quoted from.
