War Machine Challenge

A trebuchet is a siege engine that was employed in the Middle Ages either to smash masonry walls or to throw projectiles over them.
In the War Machine Challenge, teams are challenged to design this medieval weapon to protect their “cities” from the invasion of “enemies”.
Materials required are PVC pipes,elastic bands,plastic balls etc.
As a part of the process, members must also decide on the projectile mass, the launch angle and the counter-weight mass to launch the perfect attack!
The War Machine Challenge challenges the group to achieve various objectives like communication, trust, co-ordination, respect for individual capabilities.
