Whoever made this needs to research more about Eastern powers since its heavily Eurocentric. I will just name a few. China utilized gunpowder in 7th century and at the time was by far the most effective and most sought-after warfare material. Viking axe?! Cmon... Some sources say Ottomans used canons in battles like Battle of Kosovo (1389) and Nukap (1396) and most certainly by the 1420s. What gives the idea that "long bow" would be the strongest weapon in 15th century is laughable. Safavids used the "Zamburak" in early 17th century, which was literally a canon on a camel. It would seem funny but was arguably the most effective weapon at the time. So much that Mughal, Durrani and other empires made widespread use of them, and Afsharids used large numbers of them to dominate Ottomans and Mughals. And also it would've been great if weapons from the Iron Age and Classical Antiquity were included

They can strike anywhere. The arrival of missiles made everything mentioned before useless, they can strike anywhere and immediately.

The pilum was not designed to break They were designed with a well made thin barbed head to stick in people or more ofyen shields, hard to use a shield with that on the front Spear and shield combat could create big casualties if both sides got closer than spear range, whoever pulls a shorter weapon can stab 3 peoples necks before they can react Romans used pilum to disable shields, dropped or hard to wield with it dangling out, some bruised if it got through enough and some bleeding if not wearing armour or light padding Then with many shields gone from the enemy and some damage dealt with great discipline they were made to close the gap with gladius or spartha to slash and stab at close range Roman bowstring artillery could not damage even wooden fortifications reliably Used tension from ropes not from limbs if i am not mistaken Advantages to big crossbow, can pierce armour well instead of small gashes or bruises, used outside range of archers, reletively small, can keep enemy heads down so use of escalades and dirt ramps is less risky Disadvantages, hard to move, a bit longer to prime Main disadvantages offset in a siege where you are in prepared positions or setting up some outside an enemies walls The catapult shown was not used often, used a short sling for extra power and to ajust range when needed, did not throw big rocks, on small scale it is more effecient than trebuchets, throwing something 2-6 the mass of a slingstone, used on ships and sometimes on and against walls, wont breaks the wall but on wood forts can break battlements and hit people, sometimes used on battlefield Battle axes were not good on wood, this axe would not be stronger than previously mentioned ballista, a handheld weapon most effective was the spear, as it was for 90% of human history The ship shown was fir transport mainly, no specialised battlements Siege towers stereotypically shown are just way too expensive for wgat they offer, can only access a gatehouse which is not a nice place to be Ladders were far more common than this Actual siege towers were brought as close to the ditch as possible, taller than the wall with battlements ontop so you could spy on the enemy and shoot down onto their walls so when you brought ladders the walls would be clearer 90% of crossbows were weaker than bows A crossbow is designed to be more consistent than a bow, take less skill and time to learn than a warbow of 90 lb or more So they make a mechanism to hold the string rather than you bit is heavier and bulkier, so bow is shortened which goves less draw length meaning it is close to 4x less efficient than a bow, most were not metal til the late medieval period a 700lb cross bow is similar to a 165 lb longbow Longbows were not stronger or more accurate but cheaper than a recurve or composite bow Thus you could make an entire population into suitable archers with little extra cost, you can keep it up so up to 180lb can be pulled by many, 165 or 160 popular as it was easier to handle than the 180 or so lb and as such most arrows made for english campaign were designed with a 160 or so lb bow in mind Most good armour in the 15th century was striving for plate armour which shatters longbow arrows The arquebus was never the strongest weapon, muskets and guns were directly more powerful, like a crossbow but better in most ways besides more tools needed to be carried rather than a single one, damp conditions hampered it and was longer than a crossbow
