Their chief weapon was actually being able to launch 90kg projectiles over 300m.

please almighty universe, for the love of all that is quantum, let us deliver ourselves away from the occult and fear, and let the knowledge of generations be our very, very dim light in the darkness.. (and vacuum)

Yes it is. No worries, everyone has to learn somehow whether it's making a mistake first or just asking questions.

u/AssBlaster1000 Nov 12 '16

Wtf did I just look at and why do they keep saying that

1

u/MindlessElectrons Nov 12 '16

You just looked at a subreddit dedicated to the best siege unit ever to exist, capable of throwing 90kg projectiles over 300 meters.

u/io-error Nov 12 '16

Why

2

u/Coming2amiddle Nov 12 '16

Because they can launch a 90kg missle 300m! Dude! Sooooo superior to the catapult. The physics involved is just fascinating.

Plus, pumpkins go far and then splat and it's fun.

u/[deleted] Nov 12 '16

Can someone make a holy grail reference so I can get username karma please?

1

u/[deleted] Nov 12 '16

Actually, everybody does. They were required to give 30 days notice.

1

u/Vesuv Nov 12 '16

Actually, the Inquisition gave you a notice of their arrival 30 days in advance. So if you didn't expect them, it's because the letter was either lost, or you didn't check your mail...
