How to unlock the Bull's Eye achievement in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide
I got this during the third Joan of Arc mission, but it is also easily done during the sixth mission of her campaign. In this mission, the AI will attack you with a large number of Trebuchets once you have taken the Burgundian camp. Build some trebuchets of your own and make a save when the enemy launches an attack. Try to protect your Trebuchets from the enemy units (Knights are deadly to them) and make them fire all at once on the enemy trebuchet once it is deployed. The achievement will unlock as soon as it is destroyed.
Create a single player skirmish with the following settings:
8 Players, no teams
Game Mode: Death Match
Map Size: Medium (4 player)
Immediately build 4-5 castles, some houses and some villagers to speed up building. When the castles are built, build some trebuchets. Your castles and the closeness of the map should bait your neighboring AI into building some trebuchets to attack your castles. Use this opportunity to lay down the hammer with your own trebuchets.

At some point the enemy will attack you with trebuchets. Simply use your own trebuchet to attack the enemy ones and destroy one. A good place for this is the fifth Joan of Arc mission. Along the south wall of Paris (west of where you start) is a castle with a trebuchet next to it. Simply use your own trebuchets to attack that one.
