The 11th season of Forged in Fire kicks off on Wednesday evening with a challenge for four teams of expert builders. They must craft siege weapons of exceptional quality, ranging from war hammers to battering rams and ballistas.
The episode, hosted by Grady Powell, offers a substantial reward: a $20,000 prize and the prestigious title of Forged in Fire: Instruments of Death champions.
The builders’ skills and reputations are on the line as they create functional and lethal weapons of art and war. The episode creatively narrates the unique histories contained within each weapon as they are forged.
The completed weapons will undergo rigorous testing by a panel of expert judges, who will assess their performance and design.
Forged in Fire: Instruments of Death: Masters of the Siege airs Wednesday, 2 October 2024, at 9:00 p.m. on History.
