The Catapult is a large stone-throwing piece of siege equipment found in Age of Empires.

In Age of Empires, it is slow, large and very dangerous as it has a medium splash area in which all units are damaged, be they friend or foe. They are fairly expensive and more effective than the Stone Thrower but less so than the Heavy Catapult. They also have a minimum range of 2. The Choson, Egyptians, Phoenicians and Yamato cannot build Catapults. The Hittite special attribute gives Catapults double HP and Sumerian Catapults fire 50% faster.

The Catapult is the succestor of the Stone Thrower and predecessor of the Heavy Catapult.
