This catapult would be like a normal catapult, but rather than the traditional seige weapon with projectile weapons, this would have a projectile that would be attached to an elastic bungee cord controlled by a sort of pulley system to prevent the projectile from coming back and hitting your soldiers - either that or keep everyone else far away from it.-- froglet, Nov 01 2006 Like a big red cartoon boxing glove?-- skinflaps, Nov 01 2006 Try and send it back before it explodes?-- froglet, Nov 01 2006 And hope that they cut the line again.-- angel, Nov 01 2006 Wile E. froglet. Zooper Genius.-- methinksnot, Nov 02 2006 I would've thought that the projectile on a glorified rubber band would be too quick to allow the enemy to replace it with something explosive.-- froglet, Nov 02 2006 clever clever. Make the projectile of superball compound.-- jmvw, Nov 02 2006 random, halfbakery
