== Strategy ==
A Trebuchet is a medieval siege weapon, significantly more powerful than the earlier Catapult. Advances in technology allow a much more efficient launch system, capable of delivering larger, more powerful projectiles that can more easily punch through Walls and other defenses medieval cities use. Still, the Trebuchet must expend 1 to set up, is too bulky to use natural defenses, and has limited vision. Always support your Trebuchets with melee and ranged units to keep enemy units from getting too close.
Another popular use for Trebuchets is defending your own cities, as they can do a lot of damage to Longswordsmen. If on friendly roads, they expend a non-integer amount of , and hence can use their to set up and attack on the same turn.
