This catapult is a special machine which allows you fire all kinds of things into the World Beyond: very useful for preparing the ground for tomorrow's expeditions.
Once upon a time, some tinkerers decided to make a weapon to rain mass destruction on the incoming hordes. This resulted in a towering structure with a long stretchy handle and a cup at the end. Unfortunately, it took forever to crank up and tended to misfire, explode, break, or otherwise completely and utterly malfunction. And it wasn't a very good weapon either.
Once the town has built the primitive catapult, a random citizen will get a message from "The Crow" that they have been selected as the one to operate the town catapult, and that they should go to the catapult area. If you are the citizen that was selected a new icon will appear next to the area where you can find links for projects and the watchtower, workshop, ect..When you get to the Catapult area you will be given an option to enter (X,Y) coordinates to launch any item in your inventory. *NOTE* this action will require 4 AP per item until the town/you upgrade to a calibrated catapult.
