Crossbows & Catapults: Castle Battle is a restoration of Crossbows and Catapults, the 1983 classic game of kinetic warfare. Each player builds their castle, then players take turns using their weapons to fire discs at their opponent's castle, trying to knock over their warrior figures.
This new version features highly engineered weapons and building bricks. The new weapons no longer use rubber bands, replaced by spring-powered and pinch-to-fire technology that ensure reliable velocity and reward player skill.
On the building side, castles are constructed using a variety of detailed components to allow for larger, more intricate, and more varied structures.
Contents: 2 Crossbows, 2 Catapults, 1 Goblin General, 5 Goblin Warriors, 4 Goblin Flags, 4 Goblin Shields, 1 Dwarf General, 5 Dwarf Warriors, 4 Dwarf Flags, 4 Dwarf Shields, 6 Ammo Pieces, 1 Sticker Sheet (not shown), 20 Castle pieces (10 for each army): 5 gray 2x1 bricks, 2 gray foundations, 1 gray arch, 1 gray turret, 5 tan 2x1 bricks, 2 tan foundations, 1 tan arch, 1 tan turret, 2 gates.
