Dear All
I go with Hank on the Crimean War artillery which would also be useful for other 19th century conflicts.
What is wrong with the Zvezda medieval siege machines? The Trebuchet is excellent. I made mine into a working model with several modifications. I filled the weight box with crushed stones and put a hook on the throwing arm. It doesn't throw a stone far but looks as if it could.

Here is a low res scan just done on a flat bed scanner hence the unusual angle.
I like a challenge. The plastic rock is the one I use and it normally travels 1cm vertically but occasionally forward with the force of comatose gnat. The hook is made of wire and attaches to the winding gear with a loop that pulls away. In the pic it is in the display mode ie under tension.
