About the game

What is Crossbows and Catapults?

Players build a wall of plastic bricks to protect their fort, then alternate turns shooting the walls down using ballistae ("crossbows") and plastic discs, or by lobbing discs over the wall with the catapult. Various scenarios and victory conditions can be made.
