From BoardGameGeek

Crossbows & Catapults: Castle Battle is a restoration of Crossbows and Catapults, the 1983 classic game of kinetic warfare. Each player builds their castle, then players take turns using their weapons to fire discs at their opponent's castle, trying to knock over their warrior figures. This new version features highly engineered weapons and building bricks. The new weapons no longer use rubber bands, replaced by spring-powered and pinch-to-fire technology that ensure reliable velocity and reward player skill. On the building side, castles are constructed using a variety of detailed components to allow for larger, more intricate, and more varied structures. On your turn, take two actions: Move or Fire. Do them in either order, or do the same one twice. Knock down all the enemy warriors and their general to win! -description from publisher
