← HistoryWhich unintended siege consequence occurred due to concentric castle design?
A)Greater vulnerability to trebuchet fire
B)Increased risk of mine collapses
C)Complex supply chain disruption✓
D)Reduced attacker siege options
💡 Explanation
Siege forces that capture the outer wall can trap the castle's inhabitants, creating a long-term supply problem by the Encirclement mechanism. Because interior areas consume rations, therefore inhabitants use supplies faster, rather than defenders being able to raid the external territories.
