Both the animated and live-action sequences go out of their way to show how castles functioned defensively, especially in times of war. This would eventually be followed by ''WesternAnimation/{{Cathedral}}'' in 1986, ''WesternAnimation/{{Pyramid}}'' in 1988, ''WesternAnimation/RomanCity'' in 1994, and ''Mill Times'' in 2002.

* AFatherToHisMen: Prince Dafydd is shown on several occasions directly leading his army from the front: he supervises the battering ram breaking down the town gate, he's present when the siege towers assault the castle wall, and he's shown coolly blocking arrows with his shield while explaining his next moves after the undermine fails (plus his sword is noticeably notched, indicating substantial use in combat). Lord Kevin is an aversion as he is only ever seen directing the siege defense from his castle tower, though we also don't get to see what else he's doing during the siege.

** Some unspecified time into the siege, Dafydd receives word that King Edward has gathered together a relief force to relieve the castle. With his options now limited, Dafydd orders his entire army to try to storm the castle with the siege equipment currently at their disposal. However, soldiers climbing ladders are tipped or knocked off easily, the Welsh soldiers who directly attack the walls from the siege towers are repulsed, the towers themselves are ultimately burnt, and a brief scene shows the Welsh battering ram falling into the moat.

After an intense three-day non-stop battle, both sides are exhausted, but Dafydd's army has gotten no closer to breaching the castle walls.
