Mission 44 · Learning through making
The Siege of Tangle’s Fortress
Build a trebuchet for the final challenge against Tangle.
A completed trebuchet with its throwing arm and counterweight.
Rain changed the setting but did not cancel the mission. Families gathered under shelter to build trebuchets and test them against a fortress target.
The construction was complex and called for adults and children to work together. Throwing arms, supports, and counterweights had to function as a system, making persistence and practical problem solving part of the experience.
